Yeah, not that bad yet, at least here, $3.90. I picked up a 5 gallon can and filled it (added gas stabilizer), covid and 1970's has given me hording tendencies.

Remember when locking gas caps were a thing?

Edit: Just checked, this morning the highest price is $4.10.


Benefit from my experience.

I have been buying low for gasoline for over 30 years.

I store it in 25 and 55 gallon drums.

In a SEALED steel drum - gasoline will keep without adding any stabilizer for over 2 years.

We burned up the last of the $1.25 gas a few months ago.

In a plastic gas can - don' t overfill. 4.5 gallons in a 5 gallon is best.  Keep the lid tight - and it will keep for a year. No stabilizers are necessary.


Edit to add - Saturns use a sealed fuel system.

I have ran cars with gasoline in them that was over 3 years old. No problems. No octane knock.
