Off-Topic and Gas Prices Tracking Thread

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

I had to get a few gallons at $3.39 yesterday. There's this thing here where the stations will all jump up like 40 cents one one day and then slowly come down over the next couple of weeks in price wars before the next big jump. Of course I was sick all week and my wife didn't go one time when it was $2.79, so then the gas light is on when I went to the store last night and I had no choice but to get some. When I'm on my game with rewards and timing, I usually get it for less than $2, but yesterday was definitely a pain.

Gas prices are almost always higher on Mondays. They have learned everyone runs around on the weekend burning up gas and then refills on Monday. Every week ours here will swing 20-30 cents through the week and then goes back up Monday morning.
