Default OMG !! $3.24 for Premium in New Port Richey !!!

Woke up this morning knowing I needed gas. Went to Hess, and once I saw the price, my stomach almost turned inside out !!! I'm speechless.

NPR is in Pasco County, roughly 40 minutes NW of Tampa.

What's it like where eveyone else is?

Wow, that is something as Hess was always cheap in price, I remember one growing up in southern Dade County. However, I'd take $3.24 of that American gasoline over the premium junk I use in Mexico at $3.80 a gallon.

Eh, I guess I get off easy, my local Citgo near UCF has mid grade for $3.05

The reason we keep paying these prices for gas is because the oil company's know we will continue to pay for it no matter what. I wish there was a way to send an effective message to these guys to bring prices down, there must be some effective action we can take...

You guys are funny... Laws of supply and demand. You use no gas that one week, but will need gas the next... If i was the gas company i'd jack up prices the following week knowing americans can not live without gasoline, and make even more money.
