I know I've been Stateside for over a year now, but I still laugh when I fill up our cars...at about 1/7 of the cost of doing it in Europe.... :-)

That makes it almost exactly £1 per UK gallon at $1.51 to the GBP! We still pay over £5!!

97 cents a liter around here, the prices have stopped falling for now.

I'd actually like oil to go up a bit as well as gas prices. The benefits of lower prices are small compared to the drop in the CAD causing prices on everything else to go up, we import too much to have a weak dollar. I am not saving enough on gas to make up for the increase in other goods.

CAD dropped to 79.8 to the USD today, lowest in 6 years.

Shell near my house in Houston, $1.63.9 this morning. I filled up my Hummer for $29.80. The warning light was on when I started.

I work in Oil and Gas recruitment, it was bittersweet.

$2.49 here in Rochester, NY. Cheaper but still expensive in comparison to most places in the US.

Some places around me have been going up a penny or few.

$1.94G at the local Cumbies, using their card, is the cheapest by a little bit these days.

Local news reported last night gas prices raising slightly. This morning Costco went up 3 cents to $1.89 and Safeway came down 3 cents to $1.92. I had a 20 cents discount at Safeway so filled up for $1.72, 33 bucks to fill up a Jeep GC instead of the $75 it was taking a little while ago.

Appreciate it while it lasts.

94 rigs dropped last week - that's significant. Oil up +5% as a result. I expect a similar, if not higher, drop next week too. And we're just getting into earnings season. We may have found the bottom.

Gas went up 11 cents a liter overnight. The falling prices have apparently ended.

Similar here - my local BP went up 8c to $1.959 but the cheapest on I-20 is still at $1.819
