I'll be driving through South Dakota on Saturday on my way up to Williston, ND. The FlyingJ web site has regular at $2.85 in Sioux Falls; this is awesome. Here in the Southwest Chicago suburbs, gas is $3.65. But, 40 miles to the west it drops by 40 cents per gallon. I envy you guys prices. We also get screwed here on gas prices around Chicago.
Its not nice to tease us like this. I went by an ARCO this morning on the way to work which is usually my best pricing. I had to weep at the $3.47 price for regular. To make it worse, I read where OPEC is going to cut production to shore up their pricing.
As someone else told me, prices go up like a rocket and float down like a feather. Apparently in my neck of the woods there is an updraft on that feather.
I filled up at Get N Go in Sioux Falls for $2.89 for super unleaded. I seen it as low as $2.84 in St. Peter, MN on my way back from the Twin Cities for a conference. I also seen it $2.85 in Tea and $2.87 in Lennox. I am tickled pink to see the gas prices go down. I will be heading with my mother and sister out to Colorado to see the relatives and a couple college buddies of mine in Denver. The timing of lower gas prices is good, although there are factors beyond my control that dictate gas prices.
Might be slightly higher the further west you go, Chris. It's still $3.17 here in Rapid City but it's lower in Denver. Looks like Yankton has us all beat for the lowest price. Sturgis/Spearfish are highest.
