    We finally currently have gas prices under $3 a gallon(2.99) in Newnan, GA. We did also have an increase in our state fuel tax earlier this year which of course keeps prices up. First time since Feb this year for under 3 though. How are prices in your burgs? No pics required on this one. :tiphat:

    Its around $3.20 here in Orlando, except for near the theme parks and the airport, where its a bit more.
    Interestingly enough, Jacksonville voted themselves an extra penny gas tax in exchange for getting rid of tolls, but gas is usually a penny or two a gallon less there!

    $3.09 for regular, $3.19 or mid-grade and $3.29 for premium in Cincinnati, but it depends on what part of the city you're in. I've seen regular unleaded as low as $2.99 recently. Cincinnati seems to be about 5 to 10 cents higher than the national average.

    Unfortunately, with a high compression engine and a turbo, I have to run premium in my Saab.

    Last time I added some gas to my tank it was at a lovely $2.92 a gallon for regular. I hope it continues because, Like many I'm sure, I have only had a completely full tank 2 maybe 3 times this whole year. Three cheers for cheaper gas prices :yahoo: !

    Since we dont call fuel Petrol, GASOLINE prices here are about $3.79 per gallon. Thats for regular unleaded gasoline. Super or high octaine costs $4. 10 give or take a few cents.

    I just went by my usual fill up and it is now down to $2.89. Z thinks that they are actually trying to encourage travel this year rather than over charge for it.

    We were down as low as $3.09 for unleaded a couple of weeks ago. Lowest price right now is $3.21 at the Costco and the AM/PM - Arco.
