Not in my part of Fl, North Central $4.09. Was holding at about $4 for about a month. Then premium gas started to get close in price so I guess they had to bump it up. Everyone knows it costs more to refine Diesel the Gas

There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for the price changes, either...$2.999 for regular unleaded here about two weeks ago, then overnight it went to $3.599. What's up with that? Now, if has FINALLY dropped back to $3.399. Never seems to go down as fast as it goes up.

What makes me mad is that we have a refinery at our home town. We pay .12 to .18 more at home than we do 2 hours down the road. I buy transports (8000 gallons) and have it transported 250 miles to save money. Same fuel that was piped from the refinery, then trucked back.

Filled my 250 gallon heating oil tank today at $4.05 per gallon.
It lasts about 2 months this time of year.

When we moved here in 1985, heating oil was $0.75 per gallon

If we wait for the fuel prices to drop, we'll be too old to camp.
So to heck with it, we're gonna do what we want.

Holding around $4.15-4.20 here in NEPA. Herk, you need to swap your house over to propane-$1.50/gal right now. With all the gas drilling upstate, the gas prices (CNG and LPG) are only going to go down (hopefully.) If I could only just get the truck to run on propane now...

Unfortunately propane is not natural gas. It is a byproduct of gasoline production and is tied to the price of crude. It also has way less BTU per gallon so you need twice as much to heat the same space.

My issue is I live in a cinder block house with crappy insulation. I plan on moving soon and the payback on basically rebuilding the house is not there.

My next house WILL be Nat Gas.
