That was the excuse why gas went up 30 cents a gallon when you crossed from Southampton into East Hampton on LI.

Costs just as much to truck gas to Riverhead and Greenport as to East Hampton and Montauk. But the price difference was about 20-30 cents.

Costs a lot of money to truck gas to upstate NY, too. But prices there were 20 cents less than the cheapest stations on LI and in the City :rollem:

Good read, thankx Dave. Lotta places in NJ under $2.50 now, some still over $3.00m, i dont understand it? How can gas cost more 15 miles down the road, and be as much as $.50 more? here's a site where ya'll can check the high and low prices in your area:

no. the timing is coincidental.

1) summer driving season is over

2) recessions are always deflationary because there's less industrial demand for raw materials (we're in a recession, we don't buy as much rubber dog$hit from China as we used to, Chinese cut production of said rubber dog$hit, Chinese use less oil). oil and gasoline are not the only industrial commodities that have come down ... look at aluminum, steel, copper, etc. all down bigtime.

I know its coincidence weewee.. I just thought it was funny. well.. nothing is really funny right now.

interesting times right now..

as a major propane user, this is great news indeed.

Gas in SE Mass is dropping faster than the Dow :rollem:
