As low as $1.85 in the St Louis area at the moment.....joeDonate Blood,Plasma,Platelets & sign your DONORS CARD & SAVE a LIFE

The cheapest here in PA is currently $1.93, less if you have a discount card. Right now I can get gas for $1.63 with my card.

Many of you are doing better than we out west. The bride tells me she saw 2.03 up north. Yesterday I drove by the closest Chevron at around 9:00am it was 2.39, saw 2.31 the other side of town, and then passed the same Chevron again around 11:30 and it had changed to 2.35. December futures on crude took another sizeable drop yesterday.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

If you're only hearing issues regarding Wally World fuel then it's bogus to some degree or other. They don't have their own refineries, so the gasoline they're selling comes from a refinery that also supplies others. Could be one refinery, could be multiple. Depending on the nature of the complaints it could be issues from storage, transportation, or who knows what until facts are known.

Could be the Wal-mart by us getting bad gas from a distributor. My wife’s friend had to have her fuel injectors replaced at a dealership where she bought her car and they told her not to use Wal-marts gas. I don’t buy gas at a no name station for the fact I don’t trust them but it can happen anywhere I guess. I like to use a station that sells a lot of gas. I've had cars run bad from the small stations. Maybe it's my way of thinking but when the car runs rough after filling up when it was ok before, I have to think they may have a little water in the storage tank.

Dropped again this morning to $2.07.
If you buy a car wash @ the BP station gas is $1.97."PLAN" your life like you will live to 120.

I've used Wally world gas exclusively for the last few years and have never experienced any problems.
Right now it's at $1.80 and three cents less with their card. Most of the stations on my end of town are at $1.80 to $1.82.Ken Thomas
