Thanks to trump;
Northeast US, ~$2.70 3 days ago, ~$3.10 today and I expect it to continue to rise.
#winning
Edit: $3.19. Up 9¢ in 4 hours.
I paid $3.50 today
Your lucky. I haven't seen prices like that in years. We're around $5 in the northwest us
Ouch. Hate to say it but it’s gonna get a lot worse. One crude price just broke $100/barrel. It was $90 3 days ago.
Sounds like Seattle
It’s going to get worse for sure, but in the US I expect this to have an upper bound of pain given how much oil we produce domestically. That doesn’t make us immune, but it should give some limits to the pain.
Not that I think this is ok or anything, just gives me some small hope that the bread lines might take longer to get to.
5.00 and moving close to 6 thisvweek alone. Fun times
I'm in northeast and just drove around from VT to ri yesterday. In mass gas was 3.30 gal, ri was similar +/- 10 cents depending on station. VT seems closer to 3.10 or so. Thank God the warm weather is coming so I can put the damn car away and ride my single cylinder motorcycle that gets 75mpg if I am easy with my right wrist... Also very glad I sold my SUV last year and got a little Impreza cuz that alone has saved me a couple hundred a month during the snow season where I have no choice but to roll in the cage.
