But my Costco went down a dime and his didn't. We usually track pretty close. It has nothing to do with taxation.Hence the $1.00 per gallon discount he and his fellow Oregonians are enjoying....
The tax/fee differential is not that great. Oregon is typically 38 cents and California is typically 62.9 cents (and includes a 2.25% gasoline state sales tax among some other obscure/obtuse fees) for a net differential of around 25 cents/gallon.Those pesky Cali gas taxes.
Mine went up to $3.699 today. Premium is still under $4 (by 0.1 cent).$4.79 at Costco...
This isn't caused by the gas tax differences between the states. NC is $0.41 and NJ is $0.42 while VA is $0.28 and DE is $0.23. At worst, the price differential as a result of state taxes is only 19 cents. There's some heavy scheming and blame throwing involved in adding another $1.81/gallon to the price.There is like 2$ diffrence in gas in NC vs NJ when dad makes his trips to NJ from NC he get gas in Va or DE now, he wont get gas in NJ less he wont make out NJ to VA or DE before hand.
Mine's still $3.699.$4.84 at Costco...
