Gas jumped up $.30 in the last 4 days, what’s it doing in your neck of the woods?

March 04, 2022, 05:56 PM

Filled the car today and it takes 91 octane, the highest grade in Mountain West states. Price was $4.259, almost $1.00 higher than the last fill up at Costco; this wasn’t at Costco, I assume it’s $0.20 or $0.30 less expensive there.

This was on the pump at my local gas station today as I filled my wife’s van up at $4.19 a gallon:

Hitting $11 a gallon here - for an imperial gallon of diesel.

Super unleaded? I just can't bear to look.

However, my pal Greg, a Ukrainian, told me this morning that prices back in Russia are hitting double from last week. IF you can find any.

He has relatives in the UAF. Needless to say he is worried to death about them.

$3.99 today

Was $3.69 when I filled up there last Sunday and the lines were all the way to the flooring store and backing up turning lane from Cascades or Palisades (can't remember the road name). Was going to head there today or tomorrow for my weekly refill was expecting $4 or more when I do it.

Luckily my commute is only 5.3mi each way, so it's not hurting me at all. The people who it hurts are the people who live on the edge, struggling young families, people living off SS, etc. I'm sure everyone reading this right now can remember a point in their life when a flat tire or a trip to the Dr. would be devastating leaving you deciding which bill wasn't getting paid that week. Even if you're lucky enough to never have been there, you can have empathy for those that live paycheck to paycheck. This to them is like getting a flat tire every single week, eventually it's going to break some people living on the cusp.

Action needs to be taken for our strategic and economic stability to ensure that we are not freezing grannies in the winter due to fuel oil costs or making kids of young families go without a meal. We need to demand a return to energy dominance and self reliance. I imagine a lot of people that voted for Biden/New Green Shit show that can't afford a Tesla are at least partially rethinking their choices at the ballot box.

We can't continue to sacrifice the poor so that the rich can feel good about themselves. Electric cars and other green innovation will still take place even if we resume being the world's top producer. In fact I believe it will benefit the planet to have our eco-friendly oils produced over Russian, Iranian, and Saudi oils as we have precautions, safeguards, and standards that are completely missing in those countries. I spill a drop of diesel at work, I'm filling out paperwork for days, Russia spills 50,000 gallons, oh well thrown some snow over top of it, problem solved. We need to stop buying from those who don't care about the environment or who continuously commit human atrocities.

Agree with everything you stated here.. a +1 doesn't do it justice.

I filled up ~0830 before going to the gym, on the way back traffic was backed up into the right turn lane into Costco.

It’s the high cost of Diesel brought upon us by Jimmy Carter the II ‘ economic policies that will Cripple our once prosperous economy…

Filled up yesterday for $4.33/gal for 87 octane. Two days before it was 3.93/gal. Last week it was 3.71/gal

Holy shit... I just got my natural gas bill for February. (I have gas heat and a gas water heater.)

It was 40% higher than February 2021, despite using 10% less gas.

So natural gas rates jumped ~50%!

$3.99 for reg. yesterday, up from $3.69 the day before. I'm afraid to even look today.

Fuck you Biden, you shriveled old dickhead.

We all knew this Presidency was going to suck, but after just one year, everything going on is beyond even my pessimistic expectations.

My wife just sent me a pic of her gas receipt after filling up her Tahoe (I've been on my ship for the past three weeks), and that one fill up is already half of what I usually budget for gas for the month. ~sigh~ Time to redo our budget.

Fuck you, Joe Biden, you piece of shit.

I pretty much figured regular was going to hit $4.00/gal but I was off by a few months - thought it was going to happen by June not now. My monthly fuel cost has now increased by ~$40.00 since the beginning of this year.

We haven't seen huge price spikes because our prices have been fairly high the last couple of years - it's just now, everyone else - California excluded - are catching up.
