| I had a lady customer come in the station where I work say "$3.19! Wow, that's really cheap!".... I told her she needed to "wash (her )mouth out with soap".... and that "The only thing 'really cheap' around here is Ernie (the 82YO owner)..." The woman laughed, and even Ernie's wife thought it was hilarious.
Another customer observed "If I was cynical, I'd say the recent price drop is because 468 bums (ie 435 reps and 33 senators) want to keep their cushy jobs." | |

| | The lowest Fairbanks price for regular as of yesterday was 3.80.9. Pump prices have definitely lagged behind barrel of oil prices here in AK. | |

| Are there any oil refineries in Alaska, or does it have to be shipped in (gas & diesel)? And yes, the price goes up fast but is slow in coming down. It seems like the price of oil was around the $60-$70 mark yesterday. If so, the high was around $146 ort here abouts, it would seem to justify a cost of about $2.00 a gallon now? Seems about right to me. | |

| | $2.99 a gallon here in Missouri. Got 15mpg last tank, up from 8 most of the summer(1991 Mercury Grand Marquis, 5.0L V8). It appears old cars don't like part ethanol fuel. | | | |

| | Just got gas, paid $3.39 for regular, that may sound hi but it is down about $1.00 from about 2 weeks ago, and about 3 weeks ago I saw gas for $5.38. Happy to say I did not have to get gas that week! How low do you think it will get before the big oil cuts back production? My guess is it won't go up much as long as the market (wall street) looks bad?? | | | |

| Down to $3.35 here in Vegas. Crude oil prices are crumbling fast. Maybe more relief in a bit. Take care

Yep...there are refineries here in the now freezing north - I live just down the road from two of them, and if I remember right, there is another one just south of Fairbanks.
Still hasn't dropped below four bucks a gallon in my corner of the state yet...though it is getting closer. | | | |
