May 15, 2013 at 4:24 pm #1171043
$3.79 in St. Michael, Mn this AM.
May 15, 2013 at 4:27 pm #1171044$4.19 all around the south metro. I imagine the same to be true metro wide. Skeevy ba5t4r#5!
May 15, 2013 at 4:29 pm #1171045$3.58 here in KC, up a dime since Sunday
jerrMay 15, 2013 at 4:30 pm #1171046I heard it made it to $4.13 in Isanti.
May 15, 2013 at 4:32 pm #1171048$3.89 this morning in cottage grove and now it’s $4.19
oh well something to complain about but still need it and going to use it in the vehicles and boat
May 15, 2013 at 4:38 pm #1171052Its to distract us from Benghazi, confiscating phone records, IRS selectively targeting certain groups and late ice for the Minnesota 2013 fishing opener.
May 15, 2013 at 4:38 pm #1171053I don’t even feel happy I filled up the boat and truck two days ago.
May 15, 2013 at 4:48 pm #1171056Yep. 4.19 in Blaine.
May 15, 2013 at 5:05 pm #1171061My car doubling in value when I fill it is becoming more reality than punch line…

Well done……we all know that it’s ONLY liberals that occupy the government and energy companies.
May 15, 2013 at 5:50 pm #1171082Weird since a leading story on Google news was that oil price per barrel is going down..
May 15, 2013 at 6:13 pm #1171088Had $3.79 in LaCrosse when I filled up at lunch. I’m guessing it won’t take long to make it’s way here. We’re usually a day or less behind.

You mean something like this:

People are on to that crap. I’ll bet this is the push so they can drop it a little just in time for that weekend. They know better than to thwart people from traveling and spending money on the big weekends.

Yup, seems kind of counter productive
Drop in gas prices = More spending money = A stronger economy
It’s economics 101

Unlike Tuesday’s brief heat wave, the high gas prices will remain with us for a while, possibly through the July Fourth holiday. Weinholzer said reduced capacity due to the closures of two large refineries in the Chicago area is the main culprit in driving the prices up.

You forgot to mention the use of Drones in US air space…

Why would a refinery close down during the busy season? I ask the question assuming it is for maintenance.
May 15, 2013 at 7:28 pm #1171116If the powers that be wanted to fix the economy all they would have to do is get gas to be $2.00 a gallon! Any rocket scientist could figure out that when Obama came into office and gas went from $1.98 to where it is now that the economy would tank.
But it still isn’t where he wants it, he wants $5.00 a gallon so people buy new Hybrid cars, if I could afford a $25,000 car I wouldn’t be worrying about gas prices.
Looks like time to sell the big boat and Truck, then stick with the 14 ft. with the small tiller that I can pull with my car.
May 16, 2013 at 12:03 am #1171166The only affect the government has on gas prices is taxes. Well, unless they release the reserves.

May 16, 2013 at 12:37 am #1171175The price in Hudson just went from 3.84 to 4.19. I was able to fill up my boat at the last station in town that handn’t increased yet. .35 cents in 1 day is insane. If a couple refineries can have this much of an impact on the price of gas, you would think the government might try to encourage building a couple extra refineries to increase our capacity. They have no problem encouraging the building of stadiums, hospital expansions, solar freaking energy. etc.
It must be the greedy oil companies.

We went through this in the Bush administration with gas hovering around the $4 mark. Remember Michelle Bachman touting she would get gas down to the $2 mark if elected?
May 16, 2013 at 1:20 am #1171186I thought there were already some refineries in the the process of being built around the country
The shutdowns are usually not only for maintenance. They also go into production of different blends of gas, cause the summer and winter blends are different, and the blends that certian states like california require are different than what we use
I’m thinking this whole thing, i.e maintenance, changing blends, the liberal diversion from Bengazi, and the whole dibacle with the IRS is playing in to this
May 16, 2013 at 2:14 am #1171207Drove through Long Prairie this afternoon and it was 3.89 at noon and 9.19 3 hours later. OK fine, the sign was wrong on one side, it was actually 4.19 but it seems that it will get there at the rate it is increasing.
May 16, 2013 at 2:15 am #1171208I think they price condition us, if they want it at $4 a gallon, sell it at $4.20 for awhile then $4 seems better.
May 16, 2013 at 10:53 am #1171241$4.35 in Golden Valley last night. Holy Moses!
