Washington State fuel prices, was Re: More Plant Shutdowns
Yup, I'm thinking typo on the Washington State prices Ryan posted.
Out of curiosity I just checked the Flying J website and found today's
prices as:

WA, Ellensburg I-90 Exit 109 4.4790
WA, Pasco U.S. Hwy 395 4.4790
WA, Spokane I-90 Exit 286 4.3990
WA, Tacoma I-5 Exit 136 4.2790
WA, W. Spokane I-90 Exit 276 4.3990

Across the US, it ranged from 3.939 to the 4.479 per gallon range today.

FWIW,

Bob,

Are you coming to the Lone Star Birds Rally this weekend in Boerne,
since you are in Texas? Just NW of San Antonio on IH-10.

Oh, heck. Yes, I meant 4.40 and 4.09. I was making a statement that
it's extra expensive here, not cheap. ;-)

Yeah, and if you think Washington state is expensive, come on down to
Arnold-Land. $4.40 is pretty much the norm, (with gas @ $3.85). I
would not be too surprised to see the Magic #$5 show up in 2 or 3 months.
