[UrbanHunter]

We have the highest gas tax in the nation, actually in the world. State taxes...yep.

In the UK (England) it is 135.9 Pence per liter which is $7.154 per gallon US....
Kind of makes the $3.09 I saw posted this morning look like a deal......

UK is not a good place to be buying gasoline today:
https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk-gas-stations-are-running-dry-english-cities-retailers-association-says-2021-09-27/

Pumps across British cities were either closed or had signs saying fuel was unavailable on Monday, Reuters reporters said, with some limiting the amount of fuel each customer could buy.

The Petrol Retailers Association (PRA), which represents independent fuel retailers accounting for 65% of all the 8,380 UK forecourts, said members had reported that 50% to 90% of pumps were dry in some areas.

Price = unavailable.

Ours actually went down a few weeks ago. I just forgot to post it. From $3.47 to $3.30

 

[Tirediron]

I don't know the invoice hasn't come yet, but regular is 1.35 a litre at the pumps, you do the math,
I remember my Dad saying that we went to the metric system because people just won't pay a dollar a gallon for gas.

 

[Curmudgeon]

3.37/9 as of yesterday.

 

[goshengirl]

Just saw a sign at Kroger for 2.99 this evening.

 

[Bacpacker]

Our jumped 20 cents last week, another dime this week. Most places are 3.09, still one place left at 2.89

 

[havasu]

$4.69 yay me

 

[Patchouli]

It jumped twenty cents here too. $2.95 most of what I've seen.

 

[LadyLocust]

$4.69 yay me

I might have driven past you this weekend - it was $4.50ish or more down there.

 

[MoBookworm1957]

$4.69 yay me

My ex brother in law is paying $6.00 a gallon.
But not for much longer he retires in November.

Does that mean he will quit driving/commuting? What state does he live in?

 

[Morgan101]

Just paid $2.99 a gallon today. That is up 10-15 cents from a week ago.

 

[Peanut]

I paid $3:15 couple of nights ago.

I didn't know where else to put this... I found it a couple days ago but couldn't find an article about it. All I found were a couple short sentences on more than one eu news service. (move if necessary)

Seems to me if a fuel crises is so bad in uk the price jumps 40% on rumors things are pretty serious. Serious enough to affect us?

I did find where the price jumped 40% but that it also dropped down by 30% before the day was over.

But get this... Mean ole nasty Putin went on tv, made some reassuring comments and everybody felt better. So much better that the price of fuel drops 30%? Those people are hosed and winter isn't even here...

What does this mean for us?

 

[EMS Mom]

It's $3.49 here in south central PA and climbing. I'm so glad hubby isn't commuting anymore.

 

[UrbanHunter]

Took my wife to the doctors office on Thursday, (she doesn't get out much) and as we were driving there I heard her say, "Gas is over $4s a gallon? How, can that be?"

I remember in my youth selling it for less than 50 cents, $10 could fill up just about any car....

 

[Bacpacker]

I recall goin to the men's with my grand parents as a kid. This one area always had gas wars. .25 to .29 cents a gallon. Many times was give me 5 dollars worth. Times sure have changed

 

[MoBookworm1957]

Does that mean he will quit driving/commuting? What state does he live in?

He lives Arizona.
He won't be commuting long distance anymore.
Cigarettes are even higher.

 

[VThillman]

Running about $3.15 for the past week. Looks like everything (except my pension) is going up, so it's general inflation.
