I just bought half a tank of premium gas for $7.

But I've got nowhere to go.

1. That's great.

You still need to drive home.

[Cirque du So-What]

2. If you had somewhere to go (and so did millions of other people)

you would be paying much more for that gas.

3. About 6 years ago I was driving 140 miles a day and fuel was close to $4/gallon.

This is weird.

7. I have put gas in my car exactly three times this year.

At the end of last year I decided to put a small notebook in my car and record when I got gas, how much it cost, how much I pumped.

I don't drive very much when I'm in town, but in the past I'd go on long driving trips at least three or four times a year. Figured it would be interesting to see what the numbers were. So far I got gas on January 19, February 19, and April 15. Although part of that long spread between February and April was that I was gone March 1-18 on a cruise to Hawaii. But by the time I got back home to New Mexico, stay at home orders were in effect.

I will add that my car is a Honda Fit and has a fairly small gas tank. While it gets very good mileage, I've had to adjust my fill-up stops on the long trips that I take.

9. Well it's 106 miles to Chicago...

Got a full tank of gas, a half pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses....Hit it!

11. I'll take the silver lining

I drive an anti-liberal sports car.

[LizBeth]

12. I saw a couple days ago gas still at $2.39. What is the price you all are seeing?

[Blue_true]

13. I paid $1.40 per gallon for regular last week. nt

[LizBeth]

14. Wow. NW, but even that I thought mine was high. Will have to look around. It was a place that has

always been high, comparative.

[Blue_true]

17. I saw a $0.39 cents difference, two places that were two miles apart.

I paid $1.40. $20 filled up my tank, for a midsize sedan. As I was driving, I saw that the station down the highway was asking $1.79 per gallon. Sounds like the place that you went to either failed to update their pumps, or are taking advantage of people. I should not have paid much less than you, unless you live in California or Oregon, where gas is higher priced. One other possibility is the station that I went to has high gas turnover and was reflecting the current cost to it.

18. Saw it for .99 at the Sam's Club.

I'm in SW Ohio.

[LizBeth]

19. Nu uh. Wow. To be honest, I have not been further than that neighborhood convenience store

Couple months.

[Dagstead Bumwood]

20. Yeah, I was amazed as well.

I flirted with the idea of stopping in just to top off the tank, but I didn't think it was worth it to get out of the car or touch that handle.

[LizBeth]

21. I filled like in March and still barely got it under full, but when I do top, I am in Oregon so,

I do not have to get out of car. I am not allowed to fill. I find that coming in handy the last two months.

[StevieM]

15. I filled up my gas tank, just in case I unexpectedly needed it, right before I went into lockdown.

I missed the chance to buy unbelievably cheap gas. That would have been cool.

[Hotler]

16. I recommend adding some gas stabilizer if you don't drive much.

The stuff they sell us at the pump has a shelf life of a month to a month and a half. The stuff now has to have been sitting a bit.
