What is the price of gas where your are?

Just watched the price in NE Ohio fall to $3.18 from $3.50 plus in the last week or so.

Wondering if this is a national trend...

Might even be an international trend. I saw the gas drop by 3 cents per litre last week in Nova Scotia. Don't worry, it will go up much quicker.

Gas in Bay Area, CA

You folks are lucky it is so low; I just put some in my car last week & paid $4.15 / gal for regular. Premium is $4.35 / gal. FYI: On the water here gas is $5.75 / gal.

Where is here?

The price of marine fuel is always higher, do not know why they do not use the money to pave the water. It should be cheaper.

My opinion? Wholesale gasoline prices are down about 35 cents in the last 3 weeks. They fell a lot last Thursday when many of the commodity speculators cashed in to cover losses in the US stock markets. (Gold and Silver saw similar downward pressures for the same reason). See for yourself: RBCV1 - Stock Quote for NY RBOB OCT1 - RBCV1 Stock price - real time stock quote for NY RBOB OCT1

If these wholsale prices stabilize--which they apear to be doing over the last three trading days--middle America should eventually see prices in the low $3 range. $3.18 is about right. Of course, the big cities will be higher than that.

It is still in the low $3.40/gal range here in Colorado, but I am seeing a slow downward trend. In practice, most retailers will resist the urge to reduce their prices until they see sales disappear to the neighboring competition. Once a local market reaches that tipping point, retail price reductions can be rapid. Based on other post, it sounds like a tipping point has been reached in some local markets across the nation, but not all.

This past weekend I paid $2.97 per gallon at McLoud Rd & I-40, about 30 miles east of OKC.
Never thought I would see it under $3.00 again.

Twin Falls, Idaho.. That is all great for you, but here the price is up 15 to 20 cents per gallon over the past 3 weeks, currently Reg = 3.79, Mid = 3.93, Prem = 4.07 and Diesel = 4.09

Hopefully it will coming down sometime soon, seems the price of crude oil is much cheaper now than May, yet the price is almost the same.
