Filled up last night...
 
And this is what I paid for 20 gallons, well minus a $0.05 discount/per gallon for paying cash, so for those of you who aren't math majors I saved another dollar.

With the extra $0.05gallon discount for cash that comes out to 1.539/gallon.

Where are you? south of I-64 we're seeing 2.23 yesterday. Nice.

Think it's 2.26 here, but I love Hy-Vee and their fuel saver card, do all of my shopping on tuesdays, get 20cents off a gallon for spending $20 plus anything else that gives a discount, don't buy anything I don't normally buy or need so It's pretty much just free $$.

Nice! There are a couple places in Houston at $1.99 but I'm about an hour north and it's still about $2.19 here.

Bought some for $2.19 over the weekend in Souf Cack. (That's South Carolina for those of you scratching your head.)

Yeah but I run one tank to the E then switch over and depending on which tank was used first (front 19 back 16) I'll drive it for a 3-8 days and then fill up the one on E and top the current tank off, they have a limit of 20 gallons with the fuel saver card so I just try to get as close to needing 20 as I can. I also don't ever run the tanks dry, I'll switch as soon as the needle gets to E, usually have 2-3 gallons left in the tank.

Then I leave it on the second tank and repeat the process: when it hit's E, switch to the other for a couple days then filling up and top off. This way if money gets tight I can always get through a week or two without having to fill it, while at the same time not letting the gas sit for an extended period of time. Plus it keeps a little extra weight on the back for gravel and ice.

I wish I could've got a pic of the price I just paid. I just filled up at 1.92 a gallon. It was supposed to be 2.29 but the pump was set at 1.92. I bet I'll never see that again in my life!
