My dh was at the Jersey shore yesterday and gas was between $1.95 to $1.97 per gallon.
WOW. Lowest I can remember it being ever. Of course my memory sucks so take that with a grain of salt.

First, and last thing we do in Jersey is get gas. Much cheaper than here.

The closest gas station to us is a BP, and last week it was something like $3.40. I think they get away with it because of the sheer number of cabs that use it since there's so few gas stations in the city (Manhattan). We have maybe 15 - most of which are way uptown.

But the average in NYC is $2.58 according to this site:

Yes and it totally depends on where in NJ you go for gas as I notice inland seems more expensive than by the coast. I guess the inexpensive gas prices in some areas partly makes up (a very small part lol) for the high property taxes and high electricity costs there.

Today's price in suburban Chicago: $1.99

We used to be the most expensive in the country!

+ back then they also check the oil and your tire pressure and received blue chip or green stamps all for 25 cents per gal...

I paid $1.74 yesterday in a small town in Illinois.

 

[Dee*Jay]

$2.06 in a northern Chicago 'burb yesterday. (The station kitty-corner in the intersection was $2.13 and there were cars there too... ?)

Last week the gas website (I can't remember what it's called right now) said the cheapest gas in downtown Chicago was $1.98 at a specific Costco. I didn't feel like driving over there so I went to what used to be a "cheap" station by my house (it's where all the cabbies fill up and you often have to wait though a couple of cars go get in there) and it was $2.69!!! If I had known the difference was 71 cents a gallon I would have driven over to Costco! Plus, then I could have had rotisserie chicken for dinner...

$1.96 in South Jersey yesterday.

 

[HollyS]

We've seen 1.69 here in TX.

I'm still waiting for it to break below the 'magical' $4AUD/gallon - which works out to about $3.20 USD per gallon.

It's currently sitting around $3.50 USD per gallon, Australia is such an expensive place to live it's insane. As I mentioned previously, a packet of 20 cigarettes here in Australia is around $15-20 depending on brand and where you get them from, a decent meal at a restaurant will cost minimum $25. And don't expect to pay any less than $10 per lb for beef in the cheaper cuts. Forget about the expensive cuts, you've gotta be on 6 figures to afford it!!
