$2.55 at two stations here, but I also did see $2.69 at the station closest to me. (I'm wondering if SoCal will hit below the $2 mark?)

Went to Brownsville this morning. We always guess the gas prices on the way into town. We guessed $1.83 and were shocked to see 1.78 and then later bought for 1.71!!! We got almost six gallons of gas for $10. Unbelievable.

Costa, I'm hoping. I remember the last time we went under $2.00 here in OC, I got exactly one fill up at $1.999 and then it went back up...

The funny thing is, I fill up so infrequently, that I don't know what I paid last time (which was probably two months ago, and I still have half a tank!).

$2.49 yesterday. We've gone down 70c in three weeks. Seems like we're finally on a par with the rest of CA.

Wow Sea! It's really dropped up there. I don't know what our prices are out in east county, but I've not seen anything below $2.50-something here.

Two years ago, during the time when gas prices were going up, I was working for the entire month up in the bay area. I'd fly up Monday morning and back home Friday night. And I stayed at the same hotel, in the same room, the entire time. My balcony overlooked a side street and on the corner was a gas station. I cracked up watching the prices go up for the first few weeks, like, daily. Then the last week, they started going down. I kinda felt sorry for the guy on the ladder. But it was interesting to actually physically SEE the prices going up and down each day.

Sometimes the changing view from a hotel room can be quite fascinating.. one time I was in Atlanta for some training for a new job here and I had trouble sleeping the first night.. my view looked across some water to a nearby office building which had glass walls and at night you could see all the offices on that side.. I could watch as people left, lights dimmed, computer screens dimmed, then in the morning could see the screens rebooting and watch the building come to life.

Oh and I didn't go out today near a gas station but read in the paper that the lowest price in Orange County is in Santa Ana (where Scooter and Pamy both work, but on a third side of that city.. at Euclid and I think 1st $2.35.

YAY WALMART! Everybody in town [except for the truck stop and Achmed's who are always higher than the rest of town] went up 12 cents except for Walmart. Saw the gas truck coming in so figured Walmart was going up too. Not so, everybody dropped back down after Walmart refused to raise. $1.75 I know alot of people hate Walmart but they sure do keep the gas prices lower in our town at least.
