$2.75/gal for regular in SW Tennessee. That works out to loosely $1.01/L CAD. Unlike what I was used to in Canada the gas prices here are very stable, coming up on the 2 year mark since moving down here and I don't think I've ever seen more than a 10c/gal shift in that time.

Only $0.24 difference between 87 & 91 seems like a steal!! I filled up last night & 87 was $1.21, while 91 was $1.54.

$1.009/L at my local Mobil. My local Mobil has been in a war with the CO-OP down the street for the past two years.  Gas prices have been consistently 10c/L cheaper than the average in the rest of the city. 

Now it appears the Esso down the other end of the street has also joined in.  Odd though, because Esso and Mobil are essentially the same company using the same gas.

That's getting pretty cheap. It's $2.54/gal here, which is $0.81/L, but if you factor for the current exchange rate it would be $1.12CAD/L. Would be nice if it stays low for the spring/summer for some roadtrips.

$1.299 regular, $1.499 premium at Costco

Reading economic journalists, it seems no American oil companies were consulted ahead of Trump's move. Numbers say billions and billions will need to be invested in Venezuela to get the oil out of the ground, and then again the country may only go from 1.1% world market share to 3% due to logistics. Oil sales are plateauing on the world stage. Nobody told Trump the '50s are over?

I've said it before: his 7th brankruptcy will be his greatest ever.
