Gas was only 3.50 in Minnesota a couple days ago. But thats what happens when you have no taxes.

$4.39 for Diesel now. Things seem to be getting back to normal as Diesel is suppose to be cheaper than gasoline soon like it always was.

Many gas stations around here are now either around or below the $3.50 mark. Gurnee's Speedway is below the $3.30 mark. $25 to do half a tank today with Premium.

I've seen a few places here in Kenosha this evening that were at $2.97 a gallon! The place about a block from where I live was at this price. I may be off by a few cents (might have been $2.98 or $2.96), but it was UNDER $3.00. A few places were still just over $3....and there was a few that apparently "did not get the memo" as they were still up around $3.24. --Brian

The best part of worldwide recession is reduced energy prices.
