Gas prices have been dropping here

Hi there bluerubymoon53! There was a price rollback last week here in our country. As if it was enough. Truth is, the rollback wasn't much as compared to how much it has increased since January of this year. Every time there is a rollback, we already expect an increase in prices is just around the corner. I think most of the people here are already used to this.

Gas prices peaked at about $4.15 here, too but they have been falling steadily for about the last week. We're currently at $3.79 average around here with some stations now selling gas in the $3.55-3.65 range, too. The timing for this is excellent considering that we're taking our annual vacation in a couple weeks and during a period of time where prices normally start ramping up in preparation for Labor Day traffic we're seeing the prices at the pump decrease. That means more money for fun and less going into the gas tank. Good times.

I was shocked to see out gas go from 4.05 to 3.79! Then again, you have to wonder, how long is it going to stay that way? After all there is a holiday weekend comeing up. There is a big difference in different areas around here too, I live in PA. There is even one station that I have seen their prices change as many as 3 -4 times in one day! That's not how gas pricing works, I used to work at a convienence store.

The lowest price I've seen around my section of Alabama is $3.79 for regular, $3.89 for plus, and $3.99 for premium. It has been dropping for over a week. Hopefully, it will continue to drop. We live north of Birmingham. Our prices seem to be around the same, although some companies still have higher prices.

I live in Houston, but if I drive 30 minutes south to baytown I can get gas prices as low as $3.48 but in Houston it's a steady 3.59. 10 cents difference, and there's still places in Houston that's asking for 3.89 but they'll have to change because no one is going to their gas stations! Gas in the south is a lot cheaper, and especially here right by the coast where all the oil is being imported. I am glad about the dropping prices, it really helps stabilize my wonky budget.

The gas prices here in the town I live in. (In Alabama) was $3.96 a gallon and in the last week it is now down to $3.73 a gallon and that is for regular. Well we got gas and traveled to a town near by. It is only 36 miles away from our house. The gas there was $3.59. I told my husband to look at that. Well the next night we go to another town. which is about 25 miles from our house and the gas in that town had different prices. they ranged from $3.89 to $3.59. I asked him how in the world can a gas station right next to each other have one high and the other low. I figured they would lower theirs to try to get business. I guess they don't care. Me I am going to look for the cheapest gas.

Gas has been slowly dropping here as well. It was $4.03 but now I believe it's around $3.60 something. I'm glad that it's finally dropping again because I really hate spending so much money on gas. I'm really glad that it's dropped since school will be starting up again and I'll be doing a lot more traveling.

Here in the philippines, we are suffering in gas hikes every month. So sad.

Gas in the town I live in now is $3.75 for super unleaded if you travel 25 miles to a bigger town the price for super unleaded is only $3.59 a gallon I don't know how there can be such a differnet in price that is .16 cetns a gallon!

Yesterday I bought gas for $3.79 which is a sizable drop for us. It still didn't get me much for my $10. I imagine it will not go down much further, and will go way back up in time for Labor Day weekend. They are always higher for the holiday weekends. If it would go down some more, I might take the chance and actually fill the tank. However, I think my car won't know what to do with more than half a tank at a time!

I've noticed dropping of gas prices as well... I live in PA & highest I've notice around my neighborhood was $4.25 for the regular... And now I've noticed gas prices as low as $3.79 near my girl friend's parents house... I've been filling up my gas tank more frequently now...

The prices have dropped a good bit in the Raleigh area of North Carolina as well. I think it has something to do with the proposals to get oil from Alaska and the ocean.

I posted the same thing, i am also in Illinois, in the suburbs of Chicago..however i was far more excited at the time i posted it then i am now..lol. Ours went down to 3.95 thats the lowest it has gotten, however over the weekend, stations where changeing it back and forth from 3.95 to 4.09 and back down again and then back up, each time about 10 hrs apart. You would also see one corner be the lower price and the station right across the street be the higher price...enough to make you crazy.

This is good news that the gas prices are dropping. I have been aware of that where I live. My family and I just moved to Alabama three months ago. I have come from up north in Pennsylvania where the prices skyrocketed back around April and kept climbing. Right now the prices are under 4.00 in this area and let's just hope the prices keep decreasing steadily.

Prices here (Pennsylvania) have dropped as well. With talks of drilling in our own lands makes me wonder if oil companies are getting worried that we will not be using them to get our oil and gas. I mean I am happy that the gas prices are going down and it will be cheaper to drive, but honestly how long with it last?

Gas prices in ontario have dropped about 10 cents a litre so far. But lately it's holding pretty steady at about 1.24$ a litre. I'm happy to see that they are starting to go down though.

I live in Wisconsin, and gas prices here are around $3.72 . Lets hope they keep going down.

The prices have dropped her too to $3.79 and that is good. The only thing that I'm wondering is will the prices stay at this rate or go back up again. Right now that is good but what will it be like not a few months from now? The end of the year, the beginning of 2009 what the prices be better or worse. Cause it is affecting all those that drive everyday.

Lucky you that prices are falling. In India, they are increasing day by day and going out has become a pain. They are very costly and over that, there is a sudden shortage of fuel and almost all the stations are running out of petrol. It's good that prices in your town are going down. I hope they go to a low in my city too so that I can enjoy driving back again. bourne

Nice, they finally drop.. Hope they will keep dropping to a normal price :D This will certainly someday happen.. I hope.... Have a nice day..
