The Chevron next to me in SoCal (Walnut) is $2.99 for supreme. Though, if I drive down a mile or so, it drops almost 15 cents/gallon.

Time to really start relying on gasbuddy

I guess we should make an effort to carpool. Not driving my car because it is in Fremont and I am in Davis.

2.83 for regular at 76 at union landing...

9 cents cheaper at 76 5 exits north.

$1.35 per fill up difference. About $13.50 differnece per month. I don't know if driving 4 miles is worth $13.50...
