    Saw 1.99 on my way home about an hour and a half ago. Hopefully it stays that low until i go to work.

    I paid $2.05, but I was more happy that I only had to pay $29.25 to fill the family truckster, even though the gas light had popped on.

    I saw $2.39 today and had to look back a second time at the sign as I pulled into Dunkin Donuts.

    $2.61 -- the cheapest I've paid in more than a year.

    Given $61 a barrel oil, I should be paying about $1.70. But you'e heard that already.
     
  6. It's actually gone up about 10 cents here.

    Forgot to look today.

    paid 2.239 at a BP station that's usually one of the cheap ones (or within a penny or two of the cheap ones).
    Then drove a mile or two down the road and saw the cheap (Hess) station selling for 2.159.
