So a friend of mine heard on a radio station that a town near by me has the lowest gas prices in the nation at $1.96 a gallon. Anyone seen lower?

2-teens here. it changes about twice a day, so you never know what to expect until you pull up to the pump.

I still kinda think that's a rip off. It had gotten as low as .78 cents when i was in high school...not that long ago either, we're talking 1998 here. So if it can go down that low why can't it stay around 1-1.50 a gallon?

Don't anyone answer that....i'm burned out on the technical reasons that gas is so expensive

Gas is 2.35 here. the lowest gas has been since I have had my license is 1.99. I remember when I was younger everyone got into a uproar about gas going over 1.30 lol.

I'm just surprised that we are seeing under $2 a gallon for gas again. I always told people it would never go under $2 again, but I was wrong.

there were at a meeting and i had the keys becasue i was putting new rakes on my car and a friend called me and said hey at bill gas is really cheap you may want to tell your mom and dad. so i fished what i was doing bled then then hopped in and went and filled my car up. bills is right down the street from me.

and up there i didn't think you had to be 16 to do the pump. iv e went up there with a gas can before and none said anything. besides i know the owner

$2.73 for 87 is the cheapest I have seen it here in the South Bay. I miss the $ .99/gal days.

I doubt gas is gonna go up anytime soon...no need to stampede to the gas station. A guy at work was telling me like 3 weeks ago that it was supposed to be down below $2/gallon by winter...I'll be damned if it didn't happen before fall.

It was $2.07 the other day here.

Kinda funny story: A couple weeks ago I went to walmart and passed a gas station - it was $2.32/gallon. I spent 20 min, maybe half-hour max at wal-mart and left. When I went back by the gas station, it was $2.27/gallon. Guy came to work 9 hours later and went by the same station and it was $2.21. It was cool

It would be helpful if everyone here helped use GasBuddy

http://www.gasbuddy.com/gb_index.aspx

Just go and update where you see cheap prices and the location so everyone near that zipcode can search. I wish more people around my area would use it.

Basically you put in your city or zip and it shows you who has the cheapest gas and where it is.
