Yep, Sam's Club was $3.049 earlier this week, $3.289 last night. I expect it will rise further as this situation goes on -- the greenies will love it. Obama wanted gas at $5/gal.

Filled up last night down here in Tucson, was $3.89 a gallon at Fry's (King Soopers), I had 10 cents off, so I paid $3.79, cost me $55 to fill up a Honda Accord that still had a quarter of a tank remaining.
I just passed an Exxon station in Littleton that had diesel for $4.29.
Recall when oil was below 0 due to over production and lack of storage? Recall when energy companies were laying people off and going broke due to low prices?
Prices now are keeping producers in business and the USA is exporting records amount of fuel to the world.
Up 15 cents from when I filled up last night
Sure do.Quote:

EIA expects US to be a net importer in 2022. Bad time to go back to that.
I can only really remember back to the Carter administration but it seems gas prices are always higher when a democrat is in office and usually come down during a republican presidency.
Coincidence? Probably not.
$4.55/gal for premium on 136th at the Circle K west of I25 about half way to Zuni....
It was still $4.14/gal for premium at I25, but figure it is changing right about now.
Nope. Fuel prices hit their low point in late 1999 - 2000 when Clinton was still in office.Quote:

I have to second this recollection. As much as I don't like anything named "Clinton", I do recall paying a crisp $10 bill to fill up my entire truck's gas tank at the time... it was like $.70/gal in Cartersville, GA near I75 around that same time.Quote:
