I just was on my way back from one of our new facilities in Beverly and drove by Mobil station near my office........$3.59 for Premium!!!!


I love how a gas station can go up $.60 overnight even though I'm certain they didn't buy the fuel they are selling today at anywhere near that price!!!!!


Anyone see any prices higher than that here in MA?

I can see the recent cause for the gas hike but I do agree w/ that statement. They are currently charging us the increased rate on the gas that was already in the tank and bought at cheaper price from days before.

This morning in Cumberland RI it was 3.89 for premium, thank god I was filling up my beater @ 3.39 /Gal instead

Looks like I'll be drivin the beater until the next car show or NEBOC event happens..

Labor day trips anyone ?? I think I will stay home @ these prices and fire up my BBQ, Burning Propane in the backyard is gonna be cheaper than a trip in the cobra by far.

I found premium up the street from my house for 3.24 this morning. Across the street was 3.50 and closer to the highway it's ridiculous...

I would suggest DO NOT buy any gas from a place close to an offramp for the highways.. they're gouging those in need of gas travelling the roads..

I saw on TV that Georgia was getting 5- 6 bucks a gallon. I really wouldn't be surprised we see 4 bucks a gallon in the tri-state area. The northern Jersey area is getting about 3.20. For once I'm acually saying thank god I didn't get my 4.10's in yet.

$3.39 for 87 is pretty much the norm here in Central Mass., although I did see one place at $4.09 for super (place in Sturbridge)!!! We're getting hosed....big time.
