Hope those prices come around here. According to gas buddy, $4.44 is currently the cheapest for regular. Unless Sams club member, then it's a nickel cheaper at $4.39.

Paid $4.09 for E85 yesterday at the cheapest in town. There are only two stations in town that carry e85.

Jesus is Lord and Christ 🙏❤️🇺🇸

Rumor is that China COVID shutdowns are reducing global demand for oil, which is/will keep crude oil prices stable or dropping. :fl But China's COVID shutdowns are likely to affect the global supply chain. Rumor is that technology and automotive industries will be affected. China's ports are open, but truck traffic to the ports is delayed by the government requiring drivers to show negative PCR tests. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/15/business/covid-china-economy.html

Gas dropped here last night to 3.99 for regular. DS got diesel on Monday for 4.89 south of here when he went to the stockyard. Still 5.05 here. Barrel price yesterday dropped to $96 , and I think it closed below 100. Never thought I would be glad to see it at 3.99 when it was 2.89 last year....
