Rise from $1.81 to $1.97 at the cheapest gas station in town for Octane 87 in 4 days here.
oops wrong thread
Oil companies are raping us again. Everyone's got their pitchforks out and are going after AIG and Obama so gas prices going up unexplainably isn't a big story right now.Ours went from 1.79 last week to 2.09 now.
g.d. oil companies are doing it again - greedy #######s it seems as though they're exempt from everything. They can do whatever they want while everyone else has to comply with government regulations.drove past a couple of stations in really small towns in New York, I remember one was $2.17 last Tuesday up to $2.26 on Friday.
$1.87 to $2.05-7 over the weekend. I made 2 runs for wood to upstate New York last week, roughly 1800 miles, ironically gas in Taxachusetts was the cheapest. A dime less than here in RI.
So tell me, seeing you know everything, where can you buy a slabs of old growth Walnut, 9+ feet long, 2 feet wide at the narrowest point and 4 inches thick? Your local Home Depot or Lowes? Baawaawaawaaa
lolShhh, BP's napping

$2.11/9 this morning!!! Friday it was $1.87/9 at the same station. Up 24¢ in 5 days!
The slugs in the state house are proposing a 7¢ increase in the gas tax. ( I heard talk of a 19¢ increase in Mass Mopar)
We're third right now after NY and Penn, we'll be #1 @ 38¢ per gallon tax if this goes thru.
$2.46 per pack in state tax now and talk of raising it another dollar + $1.01 in Fed tax on cigarettes.
11¢ per six pack of beer to 50¢

Outside of the summer driving season, however, experts say it's hard to justify the wave of optimism that's been driving up energy prices.
"People are cherry picking the numbers right now because they're looking for good news," said Michael Lynch, president of Strategic Energy & Economic Research. "You usually don't see a bubble re-inflate like this. The market has gotten ahead of itself."
