Pre Election gas price manipulation has begun.

[Big Dave2]

Was $2.99 around here yesterday I think but creeping up back over $3.00 today.

[Finns]

$2.72 at Sam's Club, $2.75 at regular stations.

Course no ice down here till Dec. or Jan.

You and your low-tax state! Here in MN the governor/trustfundbaby wants to raise the gas tax yet again!

[jerkbait]

Still 3.09 up here in the north country. Warroad that is.

Wonder how fast it will go up now that the elections are over?

Maybe not.

Oil prices seem to be continuing to drop. Good news for drivers. Not so good for domestic oil companies

I am sure that they are still getting a pretty good margin on their product.

Gas is the cheapest it's been in a while. I thought it was only manipulation by politicians for the election? I thought the election was over?

[harvey lee]

Has nothing to do with elections Dave, check out the OPEC news and Saudi's issue with dropping oil prices. Crude was almost down to &81 a barrel and expected to still go lower.

[PurpleFloyd]

3.99 Isn't lower.

Gas went up a nickle here.

[aanderud]

GasBuddy says the EP Costco is 2.799 today (down from 2.869 on election day). Many other local stations in EP and Bloomington are 2.959, with a 2.949 mixed in here or there. And plenty of 2.999s as well, which is what it was on election day.

Overall, in the SW metro looks to be down about a nickle.

[Xplorer]

$2.73 here in Cloquet today.

[Finns]

$2.67 down here.

[Big Dave2]

LOL pretty sure Dave knows about market pricing and supply chain cost impacts on retail prices. Methinks it was sarcasm targeted toward those conspiracy theorists out there (e.g. the one that started this thread) who think the prices can be manipulated on a political whim.

Exactly. Why don't we have a "sarcasm" smiley face?

I thought the new biodiesel mandate that kicked in this summer was supposed to LOWER the price at the pump???

Thanks Big AG!
