Prices are going the roof in the last few days. A high of 2.30 cents and a low of 2.00. The place with the 2 buck diesel was sold out as you could figure. At two of the stations I passed by today the diesel was more than the premium grade gas!!! Most of the places are in the 2.15 to 2.30 range with the 2.00 dollar seller being sort of an oddball with cheap pricing. We are getting gouged out here in Western AZ.

Still paying $1.499/gal in Atlanta area, same as I was two weeks ago. The Wally SuperCenter last week was $1.539, now it's $1.569. Two miles away the local QT is charging $1.649. Go figure.

Just came back from a road trip and deisel was all over the place for price. 1.649 here in Mi. I saw it in Ohio for 1.599 Newport News VA 1.699 t0 1.789 I got off 95 onto rte 17 in Fredricksburg Va and a couple of stations seemed to be gouging with the price aroun 1.999 and reg gas at 2.049 gotcha Ohio tpk 1.729 really very comparable to reg gas in price. I think big oil co. will get what the market will bear without a revolt. Pa. was about 1.739 with the long Easter week the prices have been up. I just wish they would quit making excuses and just tell us they will be raising the prices at each Holiday. Just some more of the me onlies I'll get mine no matter what it does to you.

$1.89 at the 2 stations I frequent.

Phillips and Chevron.
(Didn't Chevron buy out Phillips not too long ago?)

$.05 cheaper at the grocery store across the street, with $20.00 minimum in store purchase.(Sinclair)
Tried that once, but the truck didn't like it.

I wonder if my H.O.A would care if I brought back a tanker full of Diesel from Texas and parked it in my yard?? We are getting truly ripped off here when we are paying more than Premium gas for the diesel at some of the stations.

The cheapest pricing around here right now is $2.19. The station on base was sold out, and the other station had a huge line. I ended up paying $2.29 in Santa Clarita at the Chevron on San Fernando Rd right by the 14 fwy....and I was happy about it. It was $2.39 a block away. According to DOE, Diesel prices went up .05 for the national average amd .10 for California. What a load of crap.

Nope. Conoco bought Phillips. Circle K stations were owned by Conoco, now being sold. Chevron owns Texaco. Texaco stations were bought by Shell.

Don't get mad at OPEC, get mad at Shell, Exxon/Mobil, BP/Amoco, Conoco/Phillips, Chevron/Texaco.
