3 bucks a gallon
As of this post.
Check your best local prices (and maybe availability) HERE
I will begin carpooling (too little too late) tomorrow hopefully but my cohort (and tennis buddy) is deathly ill so that may change.
Feel free to post your prices and discuss the shortage.
Around work everyone commutes so this is hitting hard as well as everything is trucked in so we are screwed more or less.

After work I paid 2.93 for premium, which was all they had left in the small town of Newberry

Depends on what part of town and what time today. Some places were trying to hold 2.49 this mornign I think. I saw nothing short of 2.79 midday and 2.89 this evening. Even at 8:30, after class, there was a lengthy line at several stations on my way home. Glad I topped off on Monday and haven’t driven much since. If they have it, it will probably be over $3 tomorrow, though the long term threat of shortage in this area was denied greatly in local media late today.

I paid $2.459 this morning.
From my understanding, despite the pipeline problems in the Southeast, there are 10 days of nominal gasoline available, and the oil companies are rationing it to last 10 days. So, when everyone shows up to buy 21 days worth of gas up front, problems occur.

New high for today… $3.69 at the BP station on highway 24… this is becoming ridiculous… could someone explain to me in “dumbass” terms what the heck is up with all of this… I realize that the gulf had a big hit on their pipelines… but why is that effecting/affecting us? Don’t we have our own pipeline somewhere in SC? Nobrainer said he paid $2.45, so its obviously not effecting/affecting Virgina.

stations have 3.09 posted but most don’t have regular left over. An employee at the plant who has a relative at a large gas station up the road said they were told that they would not get refilled until Wednesday. We will see.
