Local gas price drops?

[unicycle]

In NJ, which I drive thru everyday, the prices are beginning to fall below $3. I saw regular selling for $3 and $2.98 at a couple stations, while a few other stations nearby had regular going for $3.12, $3.14, and even as high as $3.20.

Weirder still is how the high octanes were priced. It didn't appear to be related to the price of the 87 but was rather a reflection of some other factors. Mostly this gas is 92 or 93 octane, and it ranged from $3.30 to $3.60! Still, with careful shopping I should be able to fill up for under $25 once again.

I wouldn't bet the farm that this trend will continue.

Just seen this morning that gas prices dropped 20 cents over night. Went from 3.29 to 3.09. I am guessing this is due to the price of oil dropping and maybe even the winter fuel starting up. Would be nice to see 99 cent gas again like when I moved to Texas in 99. Was half the price of California at that time.

It was $2.87 for 87 octane last night when I filled up (93 was $3.07) and it cost me $16.12 for 5/8 of a tank! I got my best milage so far of 39.4mpg!

Saw a BP station near me this AM with unleaded regular going for $3.39. About a 25 cent drop from earlier in the week. This is in Central FL north of Tampa.

Filled up this morning in Red Wing (MN) for $2.77 Lowest I have seen for quite awhile. Had to go home and get the Expedition, filled up with 21 gallons....Glad it wasn't completely empty.
