Gas prices

[R1Letterman]

note: indexed for inflation, not sure we not paying less now than most of the times previous except the late 90’s early 2000’s

Is that why the donations rolled in during those times and our success on field skyrocketed? Oh wait..

Normal prices where the pump wasn't set incorrectly or some sort of wild promotion - I remember .79 cents during or right after the Gulf War. (I'm 41)

You started driving early, lol.
I remember at that same time, similar price, and kids from jefferson parish were driving to chalmette to save 5 to 7 cents. Lol. Didnt seem worth it but all we did was drive around anyway most of the time so might as well be productive, lol

17.9 cents per gallon

Geezer.

You were buying it at the pharmacy in those days, weren't you?

(For you youngsters, gasoline was originally sold in drug stores.)

I was 7 in Norco at the time, and I think it was $0.23/gal there. Would walk the 2 blocks to the gas station (because you could at that time) with a gallon can for the mower.

Even today, we have it very good here. In most of the advanced countries, prices are double to near-triple what we pay. There's a reason they drive mo-peds and itsy-bitsy cars.

No way, man. Some of our politicians keep raving that the oil & gas industry is manipulating prices and gouging Americans.
