Gas is as cheap as its been here in Gbg, in two years. Octane 88 is 3.18. I filled up about a week ago and still have 3/4 tank. We still produce more oil than any other country in the world but we don't keep most of it and then import it from somewhere else and that won't change. I'm more worried that folks are more worried about the "Gulf of America" than the cost of healthcare or that the market is about the $#it the bed two years before I'm supposed to retire.

I just did a quick Google search and yeah it shows regular in greensburg is 3.48. I get gas on 22 in murrysville or delmont and its 3.60. Probably 10 miles from you but 12 cents different per gallon. And my stations are all right beside the place the tankers all get their gas to deliver.

Agree with your other points, people are played so easily with distractions from what they really should be worried about.

Not being political.....it's been this way for decades and it comes from every angle.

I work a block from here. I buy 88. Why would you not? Especially in winter.

I like Sheetz unleaded 88, too. I have noticed no depreciable drop in MPG, unlike flex fuel. MPG drops way down on Flex Fuel.

Where are the oysters coming from? And what caused them to come down in price?

All over the east coast both wild & farmed.

My local Wegman's typically has at least 4, sometimes 5 different varieties. Yesterday I got Bluepoints, Barrier Island & Chesapeake. Sometimes they also have Wellfleet, Standish Shore and Malpeque oysters.

As far as the price at Wegman's goes, years ago BC (Before Covid) they were getting $2 - $3 an oyster depending on the variety which was higher than they charged a couple of years earlier and what I just paid last Saturday in a restaurant.

I got so pi$$ed I stated buying oysters at a store called Fresh Market in Bethlehem where they about a $1.50 each but they get their oysters in bags of 12 so if you buy a dozen, they hand you a bag. That means they also don't open each bag and check each oyster like Wegman's so sometimes I was getting a clinker or two in each bag from Fresh Market.

When Covid was raging I was off raw oysters and when I jumped back in, they were cheap. I can't explain it but I'm not complaining. If only the jumbo lump crab meat I buy would go back to pre-Covid prices. It doubled during Covid and has dropped from highs around $60 a pound but it is still at least 60% higher than before.

That's why the egg thing has me pissed. If this bird flu thing ever calms down it won't happen overnight and I expect IF things go back to normal, $4 a dozen will become the new normal.

No big reason not to if your car is compatible, which most are since 2001. Be certain that your vehicle is, some Hondas for awhile were not. Obviously any car that has a requirement of higher octane fuel shouldn't either.

There is a loss of mpg, probably unnoticeable unless you track it over a long period of time.

Gasoline at Costco in Lancaster is $2.99/gal. Plus, you get another 5% rebate on all gas purchases there, or anywhere else (up to $7,000 per year I believe), when you use the Costco/Citi credit card.

If you use enough gas it might pay to consider joining Costco to get this rebate even if you’re not close to a a Costco store. Plus, there are many other Costco items that you can buy online cheaper than you’ll find elsewhere.
