Thanks ******! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

That's a great tool.

My buddy just informed me that gas is on sale in Cornilius 10th and Baseline Old Estby is being converted to Shell. Gas is $1.57! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] and Arco on Beaverton Hillsdale HWY is $1.46! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

Incase you were interested [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

My favorite flatlander is nice enough to give me access to the cheapest gas in town, since I have been buying for myself and somebody else. [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

So I will share with him that gasoline is cheap compared to some other items on the shopping list.

Diet Snapple 16oz $1.29 $10.32 per gallon
Lipton Ice Tea 16oz $1.19 $9.52 per gallon
Gatorade 20oz $1.59 $10.17 per gallon
Ocean Spray 16oz $1.25 $10.00 per gallon
Brake Fluid 12oz $3.15 $33.60 per gallon
Vick's Nyquil 6oz $8.35 $178.13 per gallon
Pepto Bismol 4oz $3.85 $123.20 per gallon
Whiteout 7oz $1.39 $25.42 per gallon
Scope 1.5oz $0.99 $84.48 per gallon

And this is the REAL KICKER......
Evian water 9oz for $1.49 $21.19 per gallon
$21.19 FOR WATER! ....and the buyers don't even know the source.

Deisel, North Plains Chevron, 1.63

Fishinfool, is that troutdale price with PUC. A lot of truck stops advertise the PUC price, not the regular price. Heck, for 1.37 I might need to burn some deisel to get that price. Not on that side of town very often.

OTS,
Nope that price is for us common folk with the (little) big rigs. Puc price is about 25 cents cheaper than that. Check www.flyingj.com which is the puc price then add bout 25 cents for our price. My parents live over there so I am over there at least once a week so I see the price there alot. Varies between 1.37 to 1.51 still is 15-20 cents cheaper than thrillsboro.. fishinfool [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

$21.19! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img],

No wonder Dan! filled his boat with my water. LOL

Roy, You need to go fishing. I think all that shad slime is getting to you. Anyone who goes through their medicine cabinet and calculates the price per gallon must be sampling the products as they go along [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img].

Silvers, Silvers, Silvers, Silvers, Silvers, Silvers, Getcha some..... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

How come the gas stations never have a buy-one-get-one free program like the grocery stores do??? [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I'd gladly show them my safeway card!

Default Fishing Gas Price Tool

Perhaps helpful, considering how much we boat owners spend for boat and rig gas.
Enter your zip code in the search box.

Roy, you may want to hide this in your
neck of the woods.
