Same here. Good 'ole Southeast.
I paid 1.65 for it a week or so ago, but I noticed on that gas prices site someone linked, that the exact station I bought it from was the highest in the county, lol. I stopped at another one on my way to a friend's house yesterday and got it for 1.53. Gas prices have never reached $2 here. I don't even remember them ever being over 1.75, as a matter of fact.
