I am going to put a date on this: it is November 13, 2008. We are solidly below $2 in Ocean County
Can you believe the swing we have seen in Gas prices? I was going to write something about Gas dropping below $2 when I saw the first $1.999 pop up. Then I started counting stations on my drive to the office that were below $2. But today I saw Below $1.90 at more than one station!
From my quick, unscientific, survey I have to conclude that Ocean County is Far cheaper than Monmouth county. As soon as you cross the Manasquan River it hops back up above $2/gallon. But today I was on Route 37 west in Toms River. I think EVERY station on 37 west was below $1.90. But 37 East still has a lot of $1.90's
Now if we could just get the price of diesel down. I am sick of paying $1 more a gallon for Diesel than Gas!
This is some great news as the Holidays approach, More money in our pockets! From an economic stand point it is a great thing. It should help increase consumer confidence which has been at all time lows, and it should help the economy over all.
I just wanted to share some good news!

Robert, That's great! I sure hope the prices here in Tucson drop below $2... There getting close... I paid $2.39/gal this morning.
Denver is dropping to 1.99 and I've seen a few a little lower! Very nice for my SUV...
Its like gas at 1/2 price! but It is still hard to find diesel under $3, (my car is diesel)...
Same for up here in NH! I actually stopped and took a picture of the pump! I wonder how long this will last. Did we hit a big well or something?
Rebecca, I think it is all a matter of supply and demand... The economy being bad globally must have reduced the demand.
Robert,
That is incredible news. We have a long way to go to get to $2.00 - not sure we will. :)

Steve, how high is gas in your area? Update: I saw $1.81, 1.83 and a 1.85 yesterday...
Wow!... That unbeatable price. Here in Vegas is still over $2.00 but again Vegas is the town of tourism and vacation so makes sense.
