Spooky Gas Prices

You're as crazy as a loon if you fill your tank without checking Cheap Gas, blogga!

My man has an aerial view of the region, and he'll help me tell you what's what in the world of Petrol.

You have to be sort of a Lucky Duck to get away from the pump without having to whore out your eldest daughter, although gas prices have dropped from about $4 and change to the mid $2s.

Now, some people will tell you that these falling gas prices are a sign that the economy is bouncing back from the bottom. Others will tell you that it's going to keep dropping... if not to pre-Gulf War levels, then at least to a tolerable $1.99 a gallon or so. Some people will tell you that this little drop in prices is just more corporate bullshit, funded by the Big 3 so as to get people buying SUVs again.

Cheap Gas won't tell you anything like that. All of the above is Speculative, and CG deals exclusively in cold, hard Fact.

Only the truly Silly Goose is getting gasoline on the Cape. If your local station's price drops, you can rest assured that it has dropped MORE over the bridges. All you have to do is go to Buzzards Bay or Wareham and see for yourself.

Now, I know what you're thinking.... why go to Wareham? Well... you can stop by The Helping Paw animal shelter on the Cranberry Highway and make a donation... say, maybe, the $5 or more that you'll save in gas visiting the Ham.

Need convincing? Peep the prix:

Sam's Gas, Speedy Mart and all the local Cumberland Farms stations in Wareham... $2.37

Don't want to drive that far? Lukoil, Wareham ($2.39), Maxi-Gas, $2.43,  Hess Wareham (also $2.43) .. and avoid the Delsie's ($2.55) and Santuit Oil Citgo, clocking in at a ya-got-to-be-kidding-me $2.57

The worst near the bridge was $2.79 at the Citgo on 28A in Cataumet.

The Vineyard is currently rocking $3.19 a gallon, according to what I hear tell.

The best diesel that I saw was Sunoco Wareham at $3.19, Lukoil at $3.25, Delsie's and Monument Beach mobil at $3.45, and Santuit Oil disgracing themselves yet again with the region-high $3.59.

We'll be back again with our special Thanksgiving Travel Extravaganza. Until then... Pump Wisely, folks!
