How Much Are You Paying at the Pump Today?

Thursday, September 28, 2006

I’m paying $2.04 a gallon. Not to shabby if I do say myself. Funny I was talking the other day with my co-workers & my mother and we tried to remember the lowest we paid for gas. I could remember paying $1.02 a gallon. The lowest anyone could remember was my mother, she paid .49 cents a gallon, yet she informed me she still stole gas back in the days.

Which got me thinking about people that steal gas. Usually the ones that do it often like the feeling they get of fear. I asked her why she stole it when it was so cheap. Her reason was so she could have money to go to the bars, because back in that day drink were way cheaper. (My mom’s crazy ...I think I should get her to write some stories for the WoW blog)

So here is my question to you all.

How much are you paying now & what’s the lowest you have ever paid?

I'm paying for every gallon with our environmental integrity, national security, and about three dollars cash.

What you really need to think about is these gas price hikes.

Have you not noticed the pattern yet?

Lets say that 2 years ago, gas was $2 a gallon. It went up a few cents, then a few more. Then suddenly, it jumped from $2.09 to $2.89. Outrageous. Everyone freaked, and it was because of Iraq, or Afganistan, or what have you. Then, the price dropped to $2.59. phew, thats not bad. NOT BAD? That's 50 cents more. It seemed 'not bad' compared to 2.89. So, now its 2.59. then 2.69, then 2.79. Then, suddenly, its 3.59!! GOOD LORD!! Must be because of the middle east. Oh, then it drops to $3.00. That's not bad, we say! NOT BAD?? 2 bucks in 2 years??

This is how they manipulate your perception. Raise it a dollar, drop it 50. Over and over again. Its a lie, forced inflation for profit.

watch the pattern, you'll see.

88 cents a gallon

damn Malach! Now that's some cheap gas or someone is a liar! *giggles* BTW I forgot to post I live in Missouri. I know gas prices range everywhere, but my idea was to get a view of what it is around the USA.

I have seen the pattern ...it's sicking!

by the way, right now, in Boston, the cheapest is 2.39.
i can't remember how much gas was back when i started to drive
but then again, i was born in 1923
i can't remember much.

Hobbs, we are unamused with your conspiratorial ranting. We have begun to notice that you find conspiracy everywhere you look. We grow weary of this, this crap. You are a paranoid delusional old man. We must side with the Piper on this, though we are concerned about his crossdressing fetish.

The 88 Cents was in 1997 or so, at a gas station outside of Six Flags New Jersey.

I filled up today at BJ's in North Dartmouth, MA, it was $2.26

I worked at my father's gas station from age 12 to about 17. I never remember gas being much cheaper than 92 cents a gallon. I also remember pumping leaded gasoline for a couple of years.

Will that be regular or unleaded ma'am?

Tainted~Love said...

LOL that's neat to know Mal! And I'll take unleaded. ~winks~

And Hobbs, at least You can remember what year You were born in!

Hobbsie...

Gas stayed at around a buck 12 for 8 years or so. What you're seeing is the crunch.

Europe pays 3 times as much.

My answers are the same as malach's. Same location

Well, yeah Murk. But I'm not talking about years ago. I'm talking about the last few years. they want you to think its a crunch. don't believe the hype!!!!

Christopher said...

It's a cruch. Fuel is running out. Europe is ahead of the curve.
