Well, we've been bouncing around for the last week. The week before Thanksgiving, it was 2.66 a gallon, then 2 days before the holiday, gas jumped up to 2.95 to 2.99 a gallon. Now, after the weekend, we're at 2.75 a gallon. No reason for the jump, other than to gouge the travelers. 
Hope it drops some more, but I doubt it with Christmas coming up.

Do you consider Costco gas real gas? |

Apparently you don't. It burns just fine in any vehicle I have driven up to their pumps.

10% Ethanol is in it that's why its so cheap......we call it fast gas. Get 2-3mpg better using Mobil gas.....@ $2.84

10% ethanol in nearly every gallon of gasoline sold in the US these days. There is ethanol free premium fuel, but it tends to be 50-75 cents per gallon more than ethanol blend premium. Most stations don't sell non-ethanol fuel anymore, you gotta search for it.

Here in Adelaide Australia, try $1.35/litre ($4.95/US gallon) at the local servo (gas station).
The cheapest in town (got some there today) is $1.19/litre ($4.36/US gallon).
You guys in the USA can't complain too much :-)

AS has been pointed out several times in this thread, most of the difference between your price and ours is gov't taxes. The raw fuel price isn't much different.
