Love the rainbow ribbon! Yesterday gas was $2.49 at my Martins grocery store in Martinsburg, WV. But if I cross the state line into VA it was $2.11! I'm off to try and find something birdy, not sure I have anything though!

Gas today in Monmouth, OR was $2.59 at the 76 station.

I filled up yesterday at Fort Hood, Tx at $2.06!! YEAH!! Beats the $4.40 we paid in NY before we moved!

I'm off to find something "birdy" and catch up on the ones I missed!

ohhh I don't think I'll win... I haven't been out of the house in the last two days, but

Sunday in Unionville Va. at the BP station the gas was $2.29 when I filled up...although last week in Fredericksburg at Costco I paid $2.18

Thanks for the fun little question

MelissaS said...

How funny, I just filled my tank this morning. I paid 2.25, which is MUCH better than I paid last fill-up about 2 weeks ago! I'll be back later with a birdy creation :)

MelissaS said...

Oh, BTW, I filled up in Rahway, NJ...

CreativeJeaux said...

$3.30 is how much gas goes for on Beach Blvd. in Huntington Beach! Partly tourists, partly because we live in So. Cal and we HAVE to drive! I get really excited these days when it goes less than $3!

Megan said...

They say we are lowest in the country in wichita, kansas with 1.94 to 1.97 depending on the station.

Pamk said...

2.51 at the convenience store near my house and 2.25 at the one off the mountain from where I live in Trenton, GA

Becky said...

My goodness-I've been on the ball this week!

Here's my card! It was the only bird I could find! Plus I think they might be ducks, but that's ok. :)

In Salt Lake City, Utah gas at a Chevron station is $2.49/gallon.

Gina Wrona said...

On Sunday, we were driving to Livonia, MI and saw gas for as low as $2.05 at a Mystic Gas Station. However, around where we live is avg about $2.12 BP, Sunoco, Mobil, Valero.

Allison said...

I don't know by gallon, but checking our radio station website where they say the lowest price in Lethbridge, AB the price is $0.914/Litre.

That's the best it's been in a long time - in the summer we were paying much more.

Dawn said...

Wow, some of those gas prices are insane still...even the low ones are crazy!! We are currently at about $2.29 a gallon in Highlands Ranch, CO.

Here is my card for the challenge, love your card btw...so cute and cheery!

Hey Angel, I filled up at Costco in Independence, MO for $1.81 today!!! Can you believe it?! It's $1.87 out in town.

CM2 said...

Gas prices are continiung to drop in Lancaster PA. The station closest to us is $2.35 but while out driving today we did see a WAWA station priced @ $2.19. Wonder if prices start climbing after, today!?

Loriq1962 said...

Jami said...

Wow!! Is it that low in the states? On base here we're paying $2.97 gallon. It's even higher if we get it on the economy... please don't make me do the math. It would be in Won per Liter! I do know it's almost double. Eeek!
hugs, Jami

Hiya! I think it's about $2.05 here at my mom's (Grand Forks, ND), my hubby said it's about $1.85 in the Twin Cities.

Your bird challenge has me stumped. I'm not sure if I have any bird stamps....I might have a chicken though - that should count!

Janet said...

Gas was $2.01 today at Sam's Club in
Florence, SC. I am still amazed it dropped so quickly from $4.00 - and I never expected to see it under $3.00 ever again!

Hi Angel,
I know it's too late for any prizes, but in Seattle, WA, my diesel is 3.49/gallon. That is a LOT better than 5.15 - 5.55/gallon that I was paying 6-7 weeks ago...

This card took forever. I must have pulled it apart 4 or 5 times before I was happy with the layout.
