nice never happen here just taxes in the state, gas station owners playing games with the prices in wny, and the end of the pipeline bs that the crooks keep telling everyone.

about 12 cents up in some areas here.

Following three weeks of pump price declines, half of the country is seeing gas prices climb as much as 9 cents on the week. At $2.53, the national gas prices average is one cent more than last Monday with 25 states seeing gas prices increases. That being said, today, 63% of motorists in the United States can fill up for $2.50/gallon or less.

“2018 has seen fluctuating crude oil prices, strong gasoline demand and new U.S. oil production records creating a volatile gas price market from month to month for consumers,”. “Typically, March brings more expensive pricing as days get longer, weather gets warmer and refinery’s gear up to switchover to pricier summer blends.”

Currently at about $2.38 here.

grab your ankles Delta Sonic on Walden and union raised their price of a gallon of a gas 14 cents in one day.

the reason and only going to continue to go up.
To prop up prices, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies such as Russia pledged to withhold around 1.2 million barrels per day (bpd) of supply from the start of this year. The group, led by Saudi Arabia, has exceeded those expectations so far this year.

"OPEC's ongoing supply cuts and U.S. sanctions on Iran and Venezuela have been the major driver of prices throughout this year,

grab your ankles, gas went up 10cents overnight again at some stations. why because the towel heads in the middle east are mad about sanctions on Iran. so now cut back. how about taking away the millions we give them every year? now saying over 3 bucks by MD. like i say the sabres and bills stink dont go to the games. start driving less.

Gas prices expected to ‘climb dramatically’ by midweek

If your gas tank is getting low, you’ll want to fill it up in the next 24-48 hours.

According to GasBuddy’s senior petroleum analyst, Dan McTeague, prices will “climb dramatically” by the end of the week and it could start as soon as Wednesday.

let's raise the price of gas because big oil is making summer blend? I guess their not making it this year. what bs that is. head down to the res for some gas 88 cents a gal yesterday by chief white owl. get out of the house get away from the old lady an take a ride. the gas station crooks around here are still holding the prices up. im still seeing 2.35 a gal what bs that is. barrel of oil yesterday trading 33.00 and reports say by summer the bottom will fall out. lol, we will still have high prices here. with our taxes included gas should be about 1.85 a gal or lower. were killing the crooks buy not driving soon more and more of these stations will start to fold. buy res gas put the crooks out of business and fewer taxes for the state and county.

I just don't get you cheekman. Maybe those gas stations want to pay their employees a living wage. Yeah that's it a living wage. $125k+ bene's and health insurance packages upwards of $28k

No different than many local government employees and there is nothing wrong with that. Here's the thing though. People don't like to pay more than they need to when they have their own issues to contend with. Their own bills and the economy they work in. When you have people willing to do the same jobs for less you do have to take that into account. Basically it's the fair thing to do and it's in the best interest of those paying bills.

I don't know why people have an issue with gas prices or items like spectrum prices. What do we hear from "Government" service providers? If you don't like it move!

Res the gas station crooks around here have been the issue for years ripping the people off for years. Ever since the oil companies drove out the competition years ago. yes people don't want to pay more than need be. take a ride to the res and buy it for now 86 cents a gal. Main and transit 2.38 a gal and the ass has no business but wont lower the price.
res when will they start making summer blend? BS on that, don't buy the gas and let it sit in the ground until it rots until they lower the price. Like I said take a ride getaway for the old lady buy a cigar and take a nice ride.

res just like the town they want to pay their employees a fair wage. but you don't like that. you live in the town right now you have the biggest school dist Cheektowaga central ripping people off for years on taxes. now their crying broke again and taxes will go up. They pay their teachers the lowest wage in wny out of any school dist. So where is the money going? I think that school dist needs to be looked into.

So does that gas station owner so that's why you pay $2+ a gallon.

People, 4 years ago high talker Higgins laid this whole issue to rest when he explained that we’re at the end of the pipeline, an explanation readily accepted by the Democratic Totalitarian public relations operation known locally as Ch 2 News. I posted about it earlier on this thread back then.

ch7 looking into the high gas prices around here with this. But no one has said anything about summer blend increase by big oil every year. all bs.

In New York State, it's $2.18 per gallon, compared to $2.96 a year ago.

In Buffalo, gas is now $2.23 per gallon, compared to $2.88 a year ago.

“The oil prices have a direct impact on what we pay at the pump, so with these low oil prices and this low demand for gasoline right now, we're just seeing gas prices drop,” “Gas has been coming down for nine straight weeks since this all began,” Carey said of the outbreak and traveling restrictions.

But some motorists wonder why Western New Yorkers are not seeing more of a break here in local gas prices.

One 7 Eyewitness News viewer wrote, "The gas stations will up their prices the second gas goes up even though the gas in the tanks was purchased at a lower market value. Are we paying over a dollar in taxes in NYS or are they gouging?"

Another wrote, "Why is gas on the reservation 86 cents? Add 46 cents taxes [and] why are we not paying $1.43 a [gallon] on regular gas stations? We [are] getting ripped off."

in this area the gas station crooks have never backed off when it comes to prices that's been like that for years around here. continue to go to the res and buy it until the crooks start lowering the prices.

I'll tell you why. Because the people who own the gas stations want to pay themselves and their employees a fair wage. They want to also offer top of line benefits for themselves. If you don't like it just go buy your gas somewhere else. It's not like you have to move to get away from a gas monopoly.
