7. We are hovering just under 2 bucks in Wichita KS. I expect 2.20-2.25 here
sometime in the next month or 2. (That may not be a shocker for the east/west coast but 2/gallon here is very high)

8. Record profits?....enough oil......
All this from the people renowned for their honesty and concern for the American People. Who is surprised. Now when they reinstitute the draft, so they can quit spending so much money on commercials about how kids should rush out and join the Army, profits will rise even more. Who is there to start telling the truth to America in a way that will wake up the people to the fact that we are getting screwed and not allowed to smoke after? Not CNN that's for sure.

9. L.A. seems to pay about 50 cents more than some states
don't you love the way they raise the price 25 cents then lower it 10 , kind of a pyramid scam and we are the suckers.

14. So predictable that it rises as we approach Memorial Day, too
I'm afraid it's going to be $2.50 by the time we get to May.

18. Ours went up 20 cents last Thursday morning in West Central Ohio.
One minute it was $1.87 & the next it was $2.07. Ridiculous! And the very same gas in the underground tank.

19. Compare price per gallon / per barrel
Our prices always go up before spring travel starts. Goes down after the summer. I know it has to do with demand. Doesn't that mean they can get more for it, not that it cost more (per barrel). Has anyone compared per barrel prices on a graph to per gallon prices. How would people feel if they knew the price of gas is based on what we will pay for it. AValdoux
