Anyone Notice A Big Jump In Gas Price?

I just checked and Costco Kauai is 2.79 vs my home town Costco at 2.69. Amazing. Of course the rest of Kauai is almost .50 more but that is still amazing how close the numbers are. Looks like Seattle is around 2.52. Thankfully I only fill up about once a month right now.

Central Arkansas; anywhere from $1.99 to $2.39 depending on where you decide to stop. And it's been consistently that, which is odd -- at first I thought the $1.99 guys just hadn't updated, but it's been like that (a .40 difference, give or take) for about a week.

What Patrick DeHaan said. Refinery maintenance is a yearly cause for a price hike.

I was on the other side of the county, (Houghton Lake) and noticed several stations listing regular at $2.99 a gallon. In my small town it's currently $2.69.

Just closer to I-75, I would say. Here where I live in the metro Detroit area, I paid $2.56 at the local Costco.

I'd do a happy dance after filling up.

Plenty of room for you here in Michigan!

According to GasBuddy.com, "Regular" is running ~ $2.50 here in mid-Suffolk County, NY this morning.

In west Michigan, the Costco here was $2.61 yesterday when I filled up, while other area gas stations were charging $2.69-$2.72. Costco has premium for $2.99.

Yeah, I drove 400 miles and used 1.5 gallons, most of that was a longer trip. I still have about 8 gallons of gas in the tank. I need to ask wife what she paid for the other car.
You're killing me!!

Paid $2.259 two weeks ago and notice today it's $2.709. Indiana has a new 10 cent gas tax increase that went into effect July 1st. Bugs me the way they price gas, I mean $2.709, that's basically $2.71, yeah I know it's like all other marketing sounds cheaper.

You should add that your tank holds just a little over 9 gallons for those not familiar with the Volt.
