I have seen it on the news the last couple of days.  It doesn't seem to have gone up in this part of Washington.  I am sure it is coming.  O'Reilly asked Newt last night why it always spikes in May, Newt answer was because we don't have enough refineries - that didn't answer the question in my book.

Add ten to twenty cents to all grades for pumps actually in the city limits.

Whoops, spoke too soon.  Mobil just raised prices by 16 cents across the board.  Others are soon to follow ($2.15, $2.25, $2.35)

Here in sunny South Florida

87 octane - $1.69
89 octane - $1.79
92 octane - $1.89

Expecting 92 octane to reach over $2.00 by June and by mid summer I expect we'll reach $2.50.

Bummer as I was expecting to buy a big American made pick-up this summer.

The real question is:  How much higher does it have to go before it affects your driving habits or purchasing decisions?

Also, mid-East crude oil has been trading around $27.50 to $28.50 per barrel.  That's about $5 less per barrel than last year yet we're paying more for gasoline due to "tight" supplies.  Tight, yeah okay.

Here in South Central Kansas:

87 Octane:  $1.699
89 Octane:  $1.799

Last summer, our high gas price for 87 Octane was $1.79 a gallon in mid-June.  Here we are in early May and we are already nearing last summer's high.  

I think the same folks that really got screwed last summer by the high prices will get screwed again:  the farming community.  I know of many farmers around here that did not farm their ground the way they had planned due to high fuel costs.  Folks that planned to plow last year put it off until this year.  Wheat harvest will start in a little over a month, there is still a lot of fall crop to be planted yet, and then all the field work that will follow harvest this summer.  In other words, the biggest time of year for fuel consumption for most farmers is just beginning.    

It's a sad day for farming when the cost of a gallon of gas/diesel cost as much or more than a bushel of wheat.

San Jose, CA area - 1.91 9/10 for 87 octane two days ago.

Fortunately, my wife and I both own vehicles that run JUST FINE on 87 octane cheap gas, than you very much.  Of course, both of my boys have to buy 92 for their cars - they can't figure out why I'm always grinning when I hear them bitching about their gas bills...

Still, I don't like paying a $30 bill for a fillup!

Local gas here in Orange County, Ca:

87 = 2.05
89 = 2.15
92 = 2.25

The cheapest I have seen it around here for 87 is 1.93 at Arco.

I hope gas goes to $3 and the power goes out. I have a bike and plenty of waterand dry food. It should teach those bastards a lesson [:\] Probably not though.

Are you serious about natural gas price increases?  Last winter was nearly catastrophic for fixed income people (my friend's retired parents).  You know what?  Soon it won't really matter how much they charge for it.  Few people will be able to pay it without severe cash shortfalls.  And what are they going to do?  Shut it off?

All the continued reports of $3.00 gasoline is pissing me off too.  It seems like they're trying to de-sensitize us to prices increases.  That way when they do raise prices, they think we'll be more accepting of it because we already knew it was coming.
