GAS PRICES!!! (CHEAP GAS THREAD)

Ok, so since I just paid 225 in 'gansett for regular I figured I;d start a thread on cheap gas, as I know people are starting to fill boats up and get ready for spring.. CHeapest I have seen the last few days:

Hess, on 1A, in North Kingstown just before the Jamestown Bridge (where Heffies used to be) 207.9 for regular... Anyone else find cheap petrol?

There is a fine line that seperates a fisherman from a fool standing in water swinging a stick.

Tell the ragheads to go skrew themselves.

Cut back your consumption. Take mass transit if you drive.

Isnt this about what we were paying last year just about all summer. I made atleast 3 trips to the cape a week last summer and the gas station at the sagamore bridge, mainland side was always about 2.12-2.22 a gallon. For some reason if ya went to M&D's yoiu could save 20 cents or so a gallon. The real pisser is that i dont make a lot of cash but will still make two trips a week to either the canal or soco, and if its gunna cost me 35 bucks round trip it just gets put on the credit card. The is always a lot of talk about the mounting debt our country has, like 8K credit card debt per american, if gas one of the biggest comodities was more affordable i bet the debt would atleast level off a bit, and if plugs didnt cost 20 bucks .

Everything is better on the rocks.

Nope, higher.

Unleaded on average is expected to hit $2.30 - $2.50 per gallon by Memorial Day, assuming consumption doesn't change.

I just read (the now infamous) Goldman Sachs energy report that said that under certain circumstances, crude could hit $105 per barrel (double where it is now).

$105/bbl = $5.00 for a gallon of unleaded!

I'm serious about the fishing car pooling thing (kinda like splitting gas for an outing on a friend's boat).
