Sad, isn't it?!

But I cannot really be upset, when I remember where we were just a month ago...

Pretty sure they would say it was not because of wanting to maximize their profits. They might say it is due to the average Utah wages being higher, than say China.

I just dropped my station down to 2.08. I went back to the beginning of this thread to see where we were at. Looks like we were around 4.07. So in about 3 months time we have dropped about 2.00 a gallon.

Yep I finally feel like we are making it to where the majority of the country is.

I paid 2.33 at Safeway last night. Got 0.10 off per gallon. Which really helps.

The highest price is at the Chevron- it is 2.69. What blows my mind is people actually get gas there, when across the street it is 0.20 a gallon cheaper.

I work at a place that sells Chevron gas. I think the ones that buy Chevron gas are the die hard people who live by it. I grew up with a father that would buy nothing else. The original owner of the station I work at believed we should charge more because we did have Chevron gas. The owners of the station now believe it's all about the competition on the street. I love it that they let us be competitive.
