Okay here goes - tell the lowest price for gas and diesel fuel that you can remember.
I remember 60 cents for gas and 35 cents for diesel somewhere in the early 80's - wasnt buying it then - for some reason I just remember it.

For some bearing, my dad said he remembers 18 cents a gallon - he is 60.

And I know that blah, blah, blah - inflation can be factored in...but who cares...just have some fun with it.

 

I remember $.85/gallon for gas in the mid/late 80's and $.14/gallon for home fuel oil when I was a wee sprout.

 

my son will be paying 8 per gallon when he drives!

 

Ten years ago I remember paying less than $1.00 ($0.97 - $0.99) per gallon of gas - didn't know anything about diesels at the time, so don't recall that price....

 

I can recall walking down to the corner gas station and buying a gallon of gas for my mini bike and a candy bar for .25 cents

We would pick up bottles to cash in for the deposit and have gas to ride all week long. It was around .17 cents a gallon, the candy bar was only a nickle.

My father had a 100 gallon fuel tank on the back of his truck. The station gave Bluechip Stamps and when he filled up, they would hand him what looked like a roll of toilet paper in stamps

Mom loved them, she was always getting a new Iron or toaster or something for free because of those stamps

 

When I started driving (1972) I was paying 22.9 for regular. It took 25 cents a week to drive to school and an occasional trip to a friends house. First car, 1959 Austin A40(traded a home built air compressor for it.)

 

The cheapest I remember buying gas was 85 cents/ gallon back in the mid-eighties when I was in high school in Las Vegas.

 

I remember when diesel was around $.25 a gallon.

I remember when gas was right below a dollar a gallon when I started driving around 10 years ago then started slightly increasing then i remember it jumping up to about $1.85 over night when I had to have the fuel pump replaced so I lost most of that fuel!

I think when I bought my 04 Hemi regular was around 1.35 if I recall correctly.

 

I remember when regular gas was 50 cents a gallon. Unleaded was just starting to be sold.

 

.329 for regular and .279 for diesel. That was a LONG time ago (or so it seems). I could fill up my VW for $3.00 and go all week +.

 

When I started driving it was at about $1.45...But I remember seeing it around a $1 when I was riding around with my old man. I used to get gas for the go-kart and it was $1.15.

Man I miss those days...

 

I remember when self-serve was first introduced and I'd pump gas into the family car for my dad at $0.489 or $0.499. That was back in the days of regular and unleaded and he could still find Ethel when needed for his 340 Duster.

 

I remember going on vacation to BC and my dad filled the car for 25cent/gallon and he was complaning that the price of gas was getting high.

 

gas at .99 diesel at .89
