slightly OT gasoline pricing

so you're saying gas prices are never $3.18/gal only $3.17, or $3.19??

can't say this is done on the east coast if this is the case

Don't forget the additional 9/10th of a cent..... So your odd numbers actually turn out even...

$2.99.99 for one gallon of gas equal $3.00 for that gallon of gas, if you don't have to pay state sales taxes. Am I right?

I don't know the answer, but here is my gas usage for the last 12 months from 3 nearby stations in the Houston area:

$3.339 Oct 2012 $3.099 $3.069 $2.969 $3.089 $3.099 $3.299 $3.379 $3.549 $3.469 $3.429 $3.299 $3.279 $3.279 $3.279 $3.239 $3.499 $3.399 $3.319 $3.399 $3.379 $3.189 $3.029 $2.969 $2.789 Oct 2013

please pursue that discussion and report back. Ask him to list all of the even and odd numbers for us. I simply must understand morons to survive one more week on this planet.

Oh wait, maybe he meant "in my box of giant numbers that I can put up on the signs, I have more of the...."

Correct and If you buy 100 gallons you get a penny rebate.

OK, I'll bite. What kind of "number" is 2.99.99?? Do you mean a gas price of $2.999?

ce of $2.999?

Google,,, Gas station prices $2.99.99 Where it says, OK, This Needs To Stop madd entips.com I don't kn ow what I mean anymore. Maybe I need to go fishing?

Ok, you guys got off topic. I meant the advertised price, second number after the decimal. That would be called the 'hundredths' place. Forget the 99 tenthousandths of the dollar. Ignoring that, prices almost always show as $3.19, $3.21, $3.37 etc. I shouldn't even say almost. It is always. Ivan Vegvary

town? city?, state? country?

my last gas receipt says " @ $ 4.239/G " (sic)

Do I remember what the sign said? no. GW

Current lowest gas price per gallon of regular gas around here is $2.87 My van's gas tank is about half full. I will fill it up this week and pour some Stabil into the gas tank.

I still get change back from a $5 bill when I fill the tank on my regular commuter when the gauge drops to "E" (which really means 0.5 gallon reserve left in the 1.6 gallon tank).

I'm paying $3.979/gal. I thought I was doing pretty good. Ah shucks.
