Have to check that. NW Houston Wallmart, Murphy Oil, priced at $4.239/ gallon.
Most stations are 4.399 to 4.5999. Have not purchased diesel for a while.
This was a couple of days ago.

Just checked gas buddy for diesel. Lowest around here now $3.70. Good news, price dropping.

Always a day late, and a dollar short.

$3.249??? did you mean $4.249???

I find it hard to believe that in the Communist Republic of California that fuel is cheaper than any other place...

Diesel just broke $4 here this weekend, $3.99 and for that you can get it both ways, LSD or ULSD. Regular gasoline was $3.49.

You are correct! Having another "senior moment", It is cheaper than premium gas, that was the message...
