Gas Prices Where You Live

These fools want to implement policy that forces energy prices higher while trying to force them lower at the same time. Just stupid…
Just try to keep those gas prices from going higher until after the mid-terms. What a GD disaster these radicals are. Good job guys. And never mind that Trump was impeached for a phoney QPQ.
$3.15 in Fort Pierce, FL this AM.
BTW, if you have an Amazon Chase Visa, you can get 10% back on gas through the end of the year.

$3.35 is the average around here right now. They will try to keep it that way until after the midterms and then back to the green new deal agenda. Staycation time this year for many more Americans. Gas prices and the new Covid strain being developed will make sure of that.
$2.99/gal cash at nearby Valero. Saw $3.03 at 7/11 this past Monday.
I found out yesterday you have to opt-in to get this offer and it's not good at a supermarket like Kroger that sells gas. But I'm in anyway!
You have to use the Amazon Prime CC but I'll just find other gas stations thru the end of the year. UDF and Speedway are usually the cheapest for gas anyway. I'm guessing the savings is about $8 - $12 per month. One free 6-pack per month is worth it for me.
I've saved $13 in October so far. I usually fill up every two weeks and fill the wife's car up maybe once a month, which we'll do tomorrow. We're going back to TN for Thanksgiving and Christmas, so that'll add more, but I'd guess we'll save around $80-$100 before the end of the year, depending how much we drive when we go back to TN.
I also game CC with cash back on my BOA Visa. Receive 3% cash back on gas when traveling back to KY/TN. Immediately upon return and just before turning rental car in, I switch from gas to travel, and receive 3% cash-back on the rental. Combine with Swagbucks and gain another 2% on car rental. While up in KY, I always buy Thanksgiving meal (~$150) and receive another 2% back for groceries. Works out okay. Not into air miles because I'm no longer traveling to Germany as much.
I have that BOA card too. I recently switched it to 3% at drug stores. My wife has one for 3% on dining, but I recently got a Sam's that gives me 5% back on gas, and my wife's Discover has a 3 or 4 month window where we get 5% on gas. I also highly recommend the Fidelity (if you have a Fidelity account) Visa where you get 2% back on everything. We use that to pay utilities, insurance, medical, ect. Another good one is the Amex Blue, which gets you 6% back on grocery stores (Kroger, Publix, Food City, Aldi, etc) with the exception of Walmart, Sam's, Costco, Target or other wholesale clubs for up to $6K a year. It's a $90 annual fee, but still pays off nicely.
In addition, it's not a credit card, but I highly recommend getting a CVS Care Pass account. It's $48 a year if you pay the membership in full and $60 if you do it monthly. So far this year we've saved $581 with all of the discounts and coupons. Yesterday we needed some things from CVS and the original total came to $64.25. With the discounts and $5 off coupon, the final total was $28.98. It felt like I was stealing.
Wow! Thanks for the info. I have Fidelity IRA and Roth IRA accounts, former since 2006. Additionally, wife's scripts go through CVS. I'll give it a serious look.
Thanks again!
I have both the BofA and Chase Freedom cash back cards. Chase is 5% cash back for shopping at Walmart this quarter.
The Costco Visa is my favorite. It gives 4% back on gas (including Costco gas), 3% on restaurants and travel, 2% on Costco store and online purchases and 1% on everything else. The rewards certificates mail once a year or you can get credits on the app. It's not actual cash back until you spend some of it in the store and get the change in the form of cash.
Saw a story on it the other day that they said diesel would spike higher than gas because of this. Trucks can't fill up at one stop so will have to go to 2 or 3 distributors just to get enough fuel for a full load. They said it would hit the northeast worst. Southeast would be 2nd... which sucks because it should be Cali eating that turd.
We have the BofA and AmEx card but we go thru the 6% cash savings before summer is over because the $6000 limit is reached. By September, we're using other cash back cards thru the end of the year. I just used the AmEx cash back from 2021 this week on my October bill. Well, $350 of it anyway.
$4.129 here and that's as low as it's been. Usually closer to $5 or more. Dems chances here in ID have always been ****, so we're ignored. Maybe that explains it.
When's robbing the SPR band aid due to run dry? After mid-terms I assume, so when prices rise it can be blamed on the Reps.
No diesel and it could be an adventurous introduction to the "great, long, cold, white progressive winter", comrades. Bundle up and eat the f**king bugs. If you can find any. I hope not.

It's $48 for a year, and you automatically get a $10 off total purchase coupon every month. You get 20% off all CVS brand products. You get various coupons like 40% off your most expensive item, $8 and $5 off coupons. After you've established your shopping habits with your account, you'll start getting coupons for the items you purchase most. You just need to check your emails you get from CVS and load the ones you want onto your account. When you check out (we always use self checkout) all you have to do is enter your phone number or scan your card. After you scan your items, it'll bring up the coupons you have available and ask if you individually which ones to use. We've walked out plenty of times with $20 or more in savings. I once walked out with over $14 worth of stuff that I paid like 60 cents for.
My wife's Discover card has a cycle where we get 5% back at grocery stores for 3 months. Couple that with the AmEx card and we're getting a nice discount for most of the year on groceries. I always open any emails I get from my credit cards, even if the header looks like something I wouldn't be interested in. This week I got one from my Discover Miles that offered me 1000 miles if I used the "tap" feature 3X between now and the end of November.
Just heard another tip. Joe Biden said don't buy Kellogg’s Raisin Bran because you can get the generic **** for a dollar cheaper.
More like fed up. And so is the majority of the country.
So how serious is this imminent diesel fuel shortage for America? The administration is being quiet about it.
