What a Gas: LoCo Prices

Another record high today--gas prices, not the temperature-- according to AAA.

Yikes! We haven't even started our summer road trips yet, people!

Back in February, Loudoun gas prices for regular unleaded was averaging $2.88 a gallon. Today we're at $3.56.

Word must've gotten out that the Costcoin Sterling had cheap (relatively so) gas today. At 11:45 a.m. cars were six deep in lines for the pumps. Today's mantra? Must get gas. Must get 20-pound bag of rice.

Here are some area unleaded gasoline prices around LoCo this morning:

--Sterling Costco off of Cascades Parkway: $3.49

--Ashburn Shell on Waxpool Road: $3.55

--South Riding Sunoco on South Riding Boulevard: $3.57

--Leesburg Liberty on Loudoun Street: $3.59

--Purcellville BP on the corner of Maple and Main Streets: $3.61

Buckle up, Loudoun. I feel that we're in for a bumpy ride. If we can afford to fuel up, that is!

What I've never understood is that just over the mountain on the way to Winchester, it's always 15 to 20 cents cheaper.

At Safeway in the Broadlands, if you have a shoppers club card and spend $50 at once you get $.20 off every gallon of gas. Last week it was $.30.
