Hi All: It appears as f the post election spike has subsided a bit but it most certainly has not gone down despite the recent fall of almost $10/bbl to $66/bbl vs $76/bbl on January 16th, 2024. I had a job in LA and picked up some fuel at the Costco in Hawthorne, CA, just outside of LAX. 03-06-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.899 01-03-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.579 01-25-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.899 02-11-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $4.049 03-06-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.899 Wayne
In Chesterton IN yesterday, even with my BP Visa card , I paid $3.059. Illinois would have been cheaper ! That's unusual. Typically it is .25-.30 less in Indiana.

Hi All: On my way to San Luis Obispo and back the other day, I refueled at this Costco in Signal Hill, CA at the best price in all of LA, OC, and SD counties. 03-17-2025 - Signal Hill, CA - Costco - $3.799 On the way back, I did not have the time to make it back to that same station before they closed so I had to settle for one about 20-miles further north for a dime more per gallon. 03-17-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.899 01-03-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.579 01-25-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.899 02-11-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $4.049 03-06-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.899 03-17-2025 - Hawthorne, CA - Costco - $3.899 Wayne
Hi All: Yesterday, I had to run out to San Francisco and since I had to take the 5 through LA in early Rush Hour traffic, I did not have time to stop at the Signal Hill, Ca Costco along the 405. I drove to a Love's in Lost Hill's, CA - half way between LA adn San Francisco at $3.99 with the $0.10 off discount promo the brand is still running 03-19-2025 - Lost Hills, CA - Love's - $3.999 For the fill above, I had to turn off on CA 152 towards Gilroy to get to the 101 and thus had to skip the Love's just a few miles down the 5 from that exit at the following which I refueled at on the way back. 03-19-2025 - Santa Nella, CA - Love's - $3.849 I have to run out to John Wayne AP in Santa Ana this afternoon and will be looking at Costco's in OC to top off before heading back to San Diego later this evening. I am heading back to Nashville tomorrow so will be escaping the sky high rates in search of the ultra low ones somewhere along the way. So far, that $2.119 in OKC last fall is the highlight and prices are still a bit higher than that even in TX and OK. Wayne
Hi All: As promised, a quick refuel in Orange County just off the 405 am I am back in San Diego ready for tomorrow's trek to Phoenix and then Nashville. 03-20-2025 - Fountain Valley, CA - Costco - $4.049 Wayne
Hi All: I am in Glendale, AZ just outside of Phoenix as I type... And like clockwork, I crossed the CA/AZ border to find one of the lowest price fuel stops in the great state of AZ. It was $1.15 less per gallon than than I paid in CA yesterday! 03-21-2025 - Yuma, AZ - Love's - $2.899 w/ the $0.10 off/gal discount deal. Tomorrow, Marian and I are heading east and just as we cross into NM, a Love's in Gallup is showing $2.639 so I will probably stop there for another refuel. There is a Costco in Albuquerque at $2.599 but I am not sure I can make it. We have the range but climbing up to 7,200' in Flagstaff is going to consume a lot of fuel. After that, a Sam's Club in Amarillo at $2.459 will probably be the next refuel on Sunday and soon after, a $2.299 from a Costco in south OKC or $2.339 at a Sam's Club in OKC right alongside the 40. I will have to travel all the way to Memphis to grab a tank at < $2.40 per with Nashville mostly in the $2.50 to $2.70 range. Wayne
At Shell in Freeport NY - east of NYC and the place Guy Lombardo used to call home - $2.859 for regular with credit card. With Shell Rewards at 0.90 a gallon, I paid $1.959 a gallon. I stuffed the tank for about the same money it would take to stuff me at McDonalds.
