NOT FROM BEANS! GASOLINE!! In Decorah, Iowa. 35 miles away from where I live. I saw the same gas chain on the way back -- in Minnesota -- at $2.17. GEEZ!” 10:34:22 PM 11/16/05 ““Cool...the lowest in my neighborhood is 2.16” MDSHiker you haven't been to Morgan City then! It was 2.05 when I left my parents on Sunday. It's probably less than a dollar by now.” 10:40:14 PM 11/16/05 Not In Northern New Jersey... “The best gas here is $2.09. There are gas stations down in South Jersey around Atlantic City and Cape May that are down to about $1.80 now.” 10:41:42 PM 11/16/05 “So... with the dawning of a new day, we no longer dream about gas prices??!??! lol” 7:42:31 AM 11/17/05 “no, we just dream of you :p” 7:44:30 AM 11/17/05 “go get a job, would ya??! LOL!” 7:45:51 AM 11/17/05 “Well, that certainly isn't nice! I'm outta work and you poke fun. Whaaaaaa! Now I need comforting.” 8:09:42 AM 11/17/05 “I still think it's the beans..... No $2 gas down here.” 8:11:32 AM 11/17/05 “Well it wasn't $1.99, I paid $2.339 today, which is like the lowest price I can remember in quite a long time. $23.71 for a 10.13 gallon fillup. Still seems like 8-10 dollars more than it ought to though.” 6:22:13 PM 11/17/05 “Awww Adventurist... now... now... Did you have a job when you moved out there, or have you been looking all this time?” 7:39:18 AM 11/18/05 “$2.08 in Metro Detroit. Not too bad.” 7:43:07 AM 11/18/05 “$1.97 this morning in indy...the lowest i remember this year was $1.75 in March...i'd like to see that again” 7:50:55 AM 11/18/05 “Nah.. I had a job up until Friday. Do you wanna be my sugar-mamma? :-)” 9:42:17 AM 11/18/05 “Well, sho. But that might put a crimp on my already crimped-income life. :-)” 9:45:07 AM 11/18/05 “I saw $2.04 in town last night.” 9:58:41 AM 11/18/05 “I paid $2.07 this morning.” 10:44:43 AM 11/18/05 “LOL... thanks!” 10:53:41 AM 11/18/05 “It was $2.10 in Manchester, NH this week and around $2.16 around here. $54.00 to fill the tank is a lot better than $76.00. When I was in Rochester, NY last weekend, it was $2.55.” 10:56:37 AM 11/18/05 “Burlington IA $1.96 this morning and going down!!!” 11:20:22 AM 11/18/05 “$1.98 in Marville yesterday....some cut rate places are down to $1.95... Funny how we get excited over paying "only" $1.99 a gallon...” 11:39:18 AM 11/18/05 “I was really excited when I only paid $2.45 today here in So. Calif., but looking at the prices everyone else is getting I'm not so excited anymore. On the bright side - that was the first in a while that I filled up my tank for less than $40.” 12:11:16 PM 11/18/05 “Outamatches, Your looking at the wrong spot in Burlington. If you go to Harrison and Summer there is a Casy's selling Gas for $1.94” 3:12:58 PM 11/18/05 “yeah, you all keep forgetting that thanksgiving is just around the door. Don't be so sure that the prices stay this "low". [i can't believe I think $1.99 is low]” 3:15:18 PM 11/18/05 “Gemini, You are correct it will not stick for long. In Iowa the temps have been hitting the low teens at night. This colder weather will scare the prices back up again I'm sure.” 3:17:37 PM 11/18/05 jrohner78 “I know they are always the lowest since they are on the out of way part of town. Ayreco under the bridge use to be.” 4:14:15 PM 11/18/05 “I know they are always the lowest since they are on the out of way part of town. Ayreco under the bridge use to be.” It was 1.93 when I filled up this afternoon heading out of town to go to Rock Island. So Outamatches what brings you into Burlington. I just moved into town about 4 weeks ago. I just took a Manufacturing Engineer job with Case. last edited: 11/18/05 8:08:08 PM” 8:05:41 PM 11/18/05 “Outamatches, meet Flash. Flash is like the guy in the Andy Griffith show I just watched -- he moved to town and knows too much about the people to be dangerous, apparently reading the hometown paper waaaaaaaay too long for an out-of-tower. Hi FLASH! How's (booming voice" "Filtergirl??"” 8:37:55 PM 11/18/05 “Lizs. That is to wierd. I watched that show with my son this weekend. Flasher, I live in Mt Pleasant but do a lot of business in Burlington. I am usually there 3 days a week. I just never know what 3 days. We will have to meet sometime.” 5:56:12 PM 11/21/05 “$1.97 across the river in Taylors Falls, MN..cheaper here than in the Twin Cities...in Florida the cheapest I saw it for was $2.39” 6:27:07 PM 11/21/05 “just paid 2.04 good to have cheap(er) fuel again.” 6:40:57 PM 11/21/05 “I just saw that episode last week, Lizs. Too funny. I was happy to get $2.19 a gallon last friday.” 7:38:59 PM 11/21/05 “Well I watched it because the moronic guy on the TV Guide channel plugged it. So was that an early episode? Because the barber was named Floyd, right? But of course that wasn't the Floyd we know (too much about) and love....” 8:46:26 PM 11/21/05 “$1.81 in Burlington” 10:22:49 PM 11/21/05
