I was ELATED Tonight and felt I'd received a Christmas Blessing early....... $2.13 at SAMS CLUB in Normal.
I DON'T think since we've "NEEDED" This vehichle...... (for the person who so heartless believes it's not a necessity to drive such a vehicle and felt it necessary to give their opinion) This could be the first time it has cost us under $60.00 to fill our tank near empty.
NOT only a HUGE SAVINGS, I was informed by the attendants; from now on to Honk my horn 2 times and an attendant WILL be right out to fill my tank for me at no extra charge. I usually receive this courtesy, especially when the weather is raw and nasty. I've offered a tip which has always been declined. One year I offered a small donation to a regular attendants church, he graciosly accepted it which warmed my heart.
I hope and pray the price of gasoline stays down, God willing.....
With the numbers of medical related miles we"ve put on this truck snce we've purchased it, I felt truly blessed tonight.

I just checked Gas Buddy and it looks like Jacksonville, Montgomery, Rochelle are all listed as $1.99. WOWZER! NW Chicago is still way above $3.00! One station was $3.89.

I just filled up in town for 2.17. I was in ottawa around noon, its 2.24, same as grand ridge. Although i did see one station in ottawa at 2.43. Hopefully that doesnt mean they're going back up. Yesterday as round noon, when i was leaving southern illinois, i saw a couple stations that were 2.45-2.50, when at least one of them had been 2.29 Thursday eve.

Gas prices continue to fall as Christmas Day approaches. Triple-A in Chicago says gas prices are expected to fall through the Christmas and New Year's holidays. Crude oil prices also continue to sell at a six-year low of $56 a barrel. In Streator, gas prices have been widespread from $2.05 to $2.25. Prices in Grand Ridge and Ottawa are higher running at $2.19 at most stations. Throughout the state, gas is averaging at $2.39.
