Thanks Waldo, interesting price spread. I have quit posting the daily open and close crude prices. I got aggravated before and quit then several people asked me to do it again. I am done for now, I am afraid if I keep posting them, the negative team on the Forum will blame Howard or West Elk, or the County Commissioners, or Elk Connect everytime the prices go up.

When I am getting ready to travel more that an hour or so from home (like going to Moline) I use the following map to help determine my route, and where to fill up along the way.  It allows me to see if there are some small town independent stations that are staying competitive with the big chain corporate ones, and then spend my gas money where it will do some good in a rural or small-town economy.

Just keep clicking on a spot to zoom in and then you can move the map around to the area you are traveling in.  It will zoom all the way to street level and give you the address and other info on specific stations.

Frank... gas is $3.93 at Safeway in Surprise and $3.97 at Chevron in Sun City West, today March 16.
I found that this is the best way to overcome high gas prices:

As previously mentioned on another thread (observations), the price had dramatically dropped from $4.35 a gallon down to $4.13.  Today on the way home from #1 granddaughters school, I noted the price was back up to an average of $4.25--$4.35 in anticipation of the holiday weekend coming up.
