Gas prices are at all time high

I dont remember that POS Douglas in it I do take your word for it...... Now a decently remember Jack Lemon being in it with that bitch..

I sure liked how they timed that films opening just a few weeks or a month B4 three mile Island accesdent. If I remember correctly....

 

Hopefully we'll be down around 3.59/gallon or so for 87, come May. It will help mine and everyone else's BG budget.

 

My station is now 4.759 for Diesel and 3.849 for unleaded in NW Kansas right now, the price is starting to thankfully come down here in the Midwest. Larry.

 

.20 more when paying with credit??? Thievery!

 

Actually, it's not. Credit/debit transactions get charged a 3% fee to the merchant.

 

Difference at the pump for cash or credit here in GA is .04 to .06.

 

Owner is taking a hit or GA has laws capping it. 7 years ago in NH it was against the law to charge more for credit. Or the owner has it figured in to his pricing.

 

10 cents a gallon cash/credit difference here in most gas stations in Washington...... Me card lock CFN furl is cheaper.... the question is how much is it when I'm filling the tank. I would have to take a pic of a gas station near it on the day of filling.... Thats not happening.

 

I get it. The merchant has to cover the 3% somehow. Quite possibly your last sentence is what is going on in my neck of the woods. When I responded to Jason's post, it is because I've never seen that big of a difference between cash and credit here.

 

Yeah, 10 cents was the usual norm till prices surged, and c/c fees are based on dollars, not gallons. at 5.50 a gallon, that 3% is 16.5 cents. Back in the 80's, 75% of gas sales were cash, so there was not really a need to charge more for credit. Today, 80-90% of sales are credit. Many times the banks make more on gas than the merchant does.

 

Maryland just dropped their state tax on gas. I filled up Sunday:
More states could do it. Top 10 gas taxes:
gas, then diesel
Pennsylvania 0.586/gal 0.741/gal
California 0.533/gal 0.68/gal
Washington 0.519952/gal 0.519952/gal
New Jersey 0.414/gal 0.485/gal
New York 0.4045/gal 0.3865/gal
Illinois 0.391/gal 0.466/gal

North Carolina 0.3635/gal 0.3635/gal

West Virginia 0.357/gal 0.357/gal
Rhode Island 0.3512/gal 0.3512/gal
Florida 0.34396/gal 0.35271/gal

And why does MD and WA tax go to 6 places????

 

I think he was pointing out the obvious - EV's are still powered by fossil fuels in most instances..

 

MD should be lower since they rescinded tax

 

That and the former CEO of Greenpeace in the 70's (now admittedly regrettably) lobbied against nuclear power.

And now in another bone-headed move, our former illustrious Governor Cuomo has closed Indian Pt. Where and how is NYC getting it's electricity? Didn't they ban NG in new building construction too, but it can be retrofitted still???
