2 gas stations started a gas price war at 3 AM this morning and are now at about $2.12

just saw it on the news right now
http://www.houstongasprices.com/

the gas stations were filled with cars for hours. police had to come to direct traffic. the gas ran out in the afternoon, until a truck came and refilled it like an hour later hooray!

EDIT: its 1.99 now

About $9.75 a gallon here - (EDIT) checked with petrolprices.com and it's spot on.

I really do find it funny when people in the US complain about petrol prices lol

The UK... 2008, lol.

Tax over here is extortionately high.

Last year it was $7.xx

And you yanks think you got problems? :P

Checking on that website, it's around 125p-133p (£1.25 - £1.33) per litre of petrol and about 20p-30p more for Diesel.

202.9 cents per litre here for unleaded 91 octane.

Enjoy the riots in your home town this will cause.
