Gas prices: MA vs CT.

I took a short trip to Boston over the weekend. Got gas (Mobil 93) off the Mass pike near 495.
I filled up @ $3.75/9........... Nice, Here locally in Ct it's $4.07/9.
Gas has always been cheaper in Ma but this is the largest spread I've ever seen.

That's what I was questioning. I'm talking Mobil 93 / or any premium for an SS.
Both my local Mobil stations here in the Valley are at $4.07/9 right now.
Of course regular is cheaper everywhere.

If you didn't notice, a gas tax hike was bundled with the gun laws that were pushed through back in July. Gotta love those sneaky politicians... go CT! I don't even pay attention anymore, but I do fill up whenever I'm out of state.

Its about 3.59 - 3.69 depending on the station in Vernon for super. My original quote was for regular. But this is still way cheaper than 4.07. I havent seen it around 4 bucks for a least 2 months off of Rt 83.

You also paid a premium price where you got it too. Gas prices are MUCH inflated near the Pike or any major highways, because of the need/convenience and they know it
