Will The Price Of Gasoline Drop Below $3.00?

[jay]

Today, $2.62 on Mahoning Avenue

[Peggy Gurney]

Yes.  Slowly but steadily, with the occasional increase, just to make us tug at our hair a bit.

I saw gas for $2.59 a gallon at a Liberty gas station in my area today.

Are prices still falling in Youngstown?

I weren't a referrin' to you but to our West side friend. It might sound crazy that there is a Giant Eagle near me, but I still do all my grocery shopping at the Churchill Common's Giant Eagle because I really like the folks there. I started shopping at that store back in 1984 when it was on Goldy Road and also, my  bank is on Belmont Avenue, and my family has dealt with that bank since 1951 when it was People's Bank with it's main office in the Stambaugh Building downtown on the Square. I'm a creature of habit and only make changes when it is absolutely necessary and I have no other choice.

[Peggy Gurney]

LOL, by no means.  I shop in Liberty all the time, and I live in Yo, but just on the south side of Gypsy.
I was simply wondering which Shell you were referring to.

[Towntalk]

Oh dear, does that mean that we must boycott everything that is outside the city limits? My oh my, I guess that I'm not a loyal lemming because 90% of my shopping is in Liberty Township, as does my very best friend in this whole wide world, who is like a brother to me. Shame on me!

The one further out on Belmont in Liberty. I saw it there Saturday night when I went shopping at Giant Eagle. Across the street from Chase Bank. See picture. Belmont at Liberty Rd.

Ah yes, the one closer to I-80.

[Peggy Gurney]

Technically, two of them - the BP and the Merchant - are in Austintown, which begins on the west side of Meridian.  Only the Speedway is (technically) in Youngstown.

QUESTION FOR WEST SIDE JAY:
There are 3 gas stations on Mahoning Avenue and Meridian Rd. that you never mention WHY?
