Lowest prices I've seen so far is $2.30/gal (U.S.)
Gas is always cheaper in the center of the country. East and west coasts always pay more.We are at $1.59 US here for a gallon. I recently paid as low as $1.83 US a week ago.
We are about a week ahead of you here. The wife has been home now for about 8 days. I would love to be there, too, but my employer is an "essential life-sustaining business". We are a master wholesaler of janitorial and sanitation supplies, so we warehouse huge quantities from the manufacturers and ship to local distributors as needed. This includes disinfectant chemicals, soaps and hand sanitizers, masks and gloves, and what is currently considered to be white gold -- toilet paper. We ship into the hardest hit areas like New York and North Jersey. This is truly something Kafka would have been proud to have written about.We are paying £1.199 per Litre =£4.796 per Imperial Gallon. Exchange rate at the moment to the US $ 1.09 to the £. until recently it was around the 1.30 to the £.
So you are doing fine.
First day of Lock Down here, though we are allowed out to do food shopping at our local supermarket. Many large shops, restaurant, Bars and Pubs, Theatres and Cinemas in towns and Cities are closed across the country, with just food, medical and what is termed essential items shops remain open, All schools, places of worship, sports clubs, gyms etc., are also closed. In fact any place where people congregate has to remain shut for the foreseeable future.
Hope everyone is taking good care in these difficult times.
Ah well, it will keep out of mischief if nothing else being so busy. However, make sure you are taking good care of yourself at the same time.Gas is always cheaper in the center of the country. East and west coasts always pay more.

It's been at £1.149 per litre at our local Asda (Walmart) for over a week now and I expect it will go down further still but not to USA levels I'm afraid as circa 60% of it is TAXWe are paying £1.199 per Litre =£4.796 per Imperial Gallon.

Ah well it seemed much cheaper than we have to pay. However can appreciate it can all be relative to ones own local circumstances and environment.::smile_big:California pays the highest gas taxes in the country. I live in Pennsylvania, the second highest. We all pay a ~$.19/gal. federal tax plus whatever the state tacks on. In California that's about $.61/gallon. In PA we pay an additional $.59. Out of every gallon of gas here, $.78 is tax. While not 60% it's still rather usurious, if you ask me.
Down below £1.00 a litre for unleaded at our local Costco now....Ah well it seemed much cheaper than we have to pay. However can appreciate it can all be relative to ones own local circumstances and environment.::smile_big:
