I went to Costco today and the gas was $3.58 a gallon.

I am in the metro Detroit area. Then I went inside and saw the biggest chocolate bunny I've ever seen. It was between 18 inches and two feet tall and was "semi-solid." The box said a serving size is 1/151! Yikes! I doubt I've ever seen 151 servings of anything in my entire life. I almost felt it was there to mock me seeing as I how give up chocolate for Lent every year. I would never buy such a big bunny but I did buy an assortment of little Ghirardelli bunnies to take to relatives on Easter Sunday. Only 10 more days until I can eat chocolate!

I put this in General Discussion because I figured the price of gas is a political issue and a current event. Then I got distracted by the big chocolate bunny.

1. Gas near Seattle is $5.09, diesel $6.59

[MIButterfly]

2. $5.09?! Holy cow!

That is outrageous.

I'm so old I can remember when diesel was cheaper than regular.

10. $6.30 on the CA Central Coast.

You can get it cheaper in the county seat, but that is a 25 mile drive.

[belpejic]

3. $5.99/gal in SoCal for 87 octane.

I saw another place that was charging $6.09 for the same. I'm morbidly curious to see how high the price gets. Also saw $5.49....a steal!

11. Well if you go to Santa Margarita ,CA the gas station price is $7.

He tells me on the weekends he sells a lot of gas to the SJV people coming over the San Andreas Fault.

4. No complaints. please. Here it's over $9 per gallon.

(€2.15 per liter).

5. Regular gas is $3.83-$3.89 here in Northeastern New York. Diesel is $5.29-$5.59 - at least it was today

6. New Zealand is going to run out of liquid fuel in a little over a month.

We're already being asked to work from home if possible, are back on an alert system for the first time since Covid, and they may start rationing soon especially with the tropical cyclone currently pummeling the North Island. All for a war we're not a party to and have nothing to do with.

So thanks America. It's $7.20 a gallon here already and the countdown clocks to Thunderdome have already started.

7. Companies always exaggerate serving sizes

I bet I can eat that in 30 servings or less. How much was it?

[MIButterfly]

8. Funny thing is, I didn't even look at the price!

[ProfessorGAC]

9. $4.249 Here

And it goes up as one gets closer to Chicago.

[MIButterfly]

12. Gas in Chicago is always expensive.

When I go there, I always fill up in Michigan and when I need more for the trip home, I get it in Indiana or if it can wait, as soon as I cross the border back into Michigan. Never Chicago.

[ProfessorGAC]

13. Sounds Right

My wife has a friend in a suburb much closer to downtown than we are.
We would never get on the road figuring we'll get gas on the way home.
Today, it would probably be 40 cents per gallon more.

14. $4.55 southern Oregon

Luckily I bought a Prius in 2017 and still gets 55mpg.

[BuddhaGirl]

15. I paid $5.39

at my local Costco in the SF Bay Area on Monday.

Gas is over $6 at my local Chevron!
