If it makes you feel any better it had gone up by 10¢ 24 hours later (last night).

Hello neighbour, I reckon you're possibly the closest forum member to me, certainly as the crow flies...

What I find strange is that everywhere locally, including the neighbouring counties seems to be holding at that price. We saw the same thing post-Irma but the anti-gouging regs had kicked in because of the declared state of emergency, no such state exists at the moment.

It's $2.29 where I live, but I usually hop over the border into Alabama where it was $2.09 last time I filled-up (I work 2 miles from the border).

Now down to $2.299.

Also topsy-turvy world has returned - the area where gas is usually cheapest, and has been most of the time (say 10-11 months of the year on average) for a dozen or more years that I know of, is now the most expensive area in my bailiwick.

I believe that most of the time, by keeping an eye on the price of gas in different towns, that we are saving 5¢-15¢/gal over buying from the nearest gas station (of the ones I have already identified as cheapest in their respective areas). In other words, the cheapest prices in different local markets fluctuate with respect to each other.

Maybe you drove through some sort of time anomaly, back to 2012?
