Here's a pic of what I was paying at the pump today. Thought I'd share, this is the lowest it's been for a while. First time I've seen it drop below $1.30 in a long time.

OF COURSE NOT! It's just that most people look at the "cheapest" grade as a basis of comparison. I think 92 octane's been running mid 1.60s lately.

Last week was the first time I had ever put $20 worth of gas into a car. I wish the gas prices here in Seattle were that low. $15 a tank is something I could get used to again...

Yeah, what Hemanuel said, I just was saying that for comparison. I filled up for $15. They've slowly dropped about 20 cents per gallon in the last month or so around here. Just goes to show you how much they could be selling the gas for and still making a profit.

We S. Cali folks can only dream. Gas prices have dropped but, at least in Irvine, Super is still running around 2.10/gal.

You guys in other parts of the country besides California are lucky. Our gas prices are still in the $2.00/gallon range. Sucks to be us, but at least we have great driving weather.
