Gas Price Tracker: How Much Where You Live?

I believe the price of gasoline will play a big part in the Presidential Election. The foggy ideals of "clean energy" and "green energy" are proving to be a bust. It is not economically viable for the largest economy in the world to operate on batteries, wind power and solar power. It's ludicrous. Green companies funded by stimulus money are going bankrupt.

So I thought it would be interesting throughout the year to track the price of gasoline all over the AFF family and see how it compares to the polls and eventually the election.

Here in Memphis gasoline was $3.73 per gallon last night.

How about in your neck of the woods?

Re: Gas Price Tracker: How Much Where You Live?

It can and does change often.
Yesterday gas at a Kroger store near me was $3.85/$3.95/$4.05 and we are usually cheaper here than other areas around.

I'm old, I remember when gas was about 29.9 cents per gallon.
I remember when some of us guys went to a gas station and bought 25 cents worth because we didn't have much money among us.

It would be interesting if someone could make up a chart showing: date; price of gas per gallon; minimum wage.

Well, here are national average gas prices for the last 5 years for starters:
