Prices today at our local gas stations went from $1.48/$1.53 to $1.66/$1.69.  Oil prices hit a new low today didn't they?

Slowly creeping up here as well.  Hate!

Still well below the spacey quotient however.

Actually Utah has finally caught up to the national average. Most places I've seen, we're hovering right around $1.65ish for regular. I can now fill up the Pathfinder on the low side of $35. Last time I gassed the Harley it cost $9. I don't expect it to last.

Prices are back down to $1.49 three days later.  That price jump was strange.

It's very weird: We're SUPPOSED to be 'The Highest In The Nation' here in The Peoples Republic Of Washington. We're generally 10 cents or so over the national average, but we're right on  it the last couple of weeks.

It could just be that demand is really down locally (supposedly bus ridership et al has stayed high) but the tin foil hat wearer in me refuses to believe it... Devil
