You got that right.
within 2 miles of Cherry Point (site of 4 major Washington state refineries) the price varies from $2.55 to $3.09 for regular,.
Near my house (50 miles south) anyhting from $2.59 to $2.95
Go 40 mile south and it gets cheaper again (all coming from the same refineries)
A freind who's a gas tanker driver says it's all in the tariff's he can make 2-3 deliveries and the farther he drives the less it sells for, in many cases.

Yeah but its fresh gas, you should get better mileage from gas that is sold so close to a refinery. Laughing

I'm not sure what it is here, I only fill up about once every other month, with the new 5 minute commute.

I have a 30 minute ride every day, about 6 miles. Luckily, my bike is 45mpg. Grin Sounds good too.

I saw the gas station this morning selling at 2.76 at Alameda & Colorado (Cheese will know where that is).
