Chuck Nessa Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 So, it was in the 3.3 area this week around here. Now 3.17 but the news says another 20 cents in the next week. I love this shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 FWIW, price is not nearly as important as supply. Just wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcy62 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Overall, I think that crude oil should be priced 2 K at barrel, because until then, nobody at the head of the various goverments of the world will have the guts to challenge the interests of oil and car industries and push for a politic of energy saving and clean and renovable energy sources, (that aren't the nuclear or biofuel, another big lobby of interests).

MoGrubb Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 i drive not even 30 miles per week unless out of town for a music gig or visiting, which is becoming less frequent, so i dont really care. nonetheless, gonna fire up the puddle jumper or the bicycle. Same here. Where I'm gonna get bit in the ass is when I need to fill up with #2 heating oil. I suspect a $500+ bill (for around 250 gallons).

Joe G Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 It was under $3 for quite a while; now it's up to $3.45 all over town. I saw diesel going for $4.05. Yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe G Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 FWIW, price is not nearly as important as supply. Just wait. Spot shortages of food and fuel are a scary prospect. Mostly because people have a tendancy to go a bit unhinged at such times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I filled up for $3.21 this morning because I saw that the Citgo was up to $3.45. That station tends to be the canary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorldB3 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 It seems like in the Bay Area and California its always more. Its been 3.60 for months now and I expect the summer for it to go to 3.80-4.00. I honestly can't remember the last time it was under two dollars.

connoisseur series500 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 $3.44 in Whitehall today. Up a dime since last night. Where's Eliot Spitzer when we need him? Get a grip, man! Spitzer and his lawsuits only drive up costs for consumers as he did in the financial field. Where was your big check from the "mutual fund scandal?" Fund companies paid a fine; consumers got nothing, and you have to pay more as Janus and other companies beef up their compliance departments and pass the costs down to the fundholders. But hey, he made a lot of headlines, put himself in office and was able to spend some big $ on some pussy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No longer do, but it gave me an insider's view of the b.s. that went on, and still does. But more importantly, I am still a financial services consumer as are many on this board, I presume. Further discussion really belongs in the politics thread, but you can read about him in the Political section, as there is a thread over there. Christ, remind me never to pay attention to any of your thoughts dealing with the music industry. You work/worked there, right?

WorldB3 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) Are you kidding? In Italy is $ 8.14 per gallon, if I correctly converted all the stuff. I think it was just over six when I was there in 2006. I remember getting gas just outside of Cortona and I guess it was full service because a guy came out with a gas hose leaking gas and smoking a cigarette and filled my tank. I went into pay and they had a full service bar/cafe and the bartender who was a six foot two Sophia Loren look a like wanted to know if I wanted a espresso or a shot of grappa. I love Italy.
