Default A rare sight!



An incredibly rare artifact from 6 years ago! It still stands today, the station closed in late 1999.

Snapped the pic on a trip with the g/f.

6 years ago ? Not bad. That's lower than it was in CT 14 years ago.

Holy hell man.. I once paid 96 cents at this little place in New Hampshire. But it was $1.19 when I Got my licence in CT and $1.0x when I got my permit in Pennsylvania. What is gas now in that area?

Not too long ago(probably less than a year), we got gas for 36 cents/gallon. Turns out they made an error with the Mid-Grade pricing but didn't change it on time(at first I thought the pump was just slow until I looked at the gallons readout). This was at a BP..
