This site is supposedly up to date on propane and fuel oil pricing by state, but who knows. In the "Area" box, you can go to your individual state.

Thing that kills me is that there is a price spread of more than 20 cents/gallon between some retailers in the area. They load the trucks from the same depot.

Highest it's been since '08, but depends on where you live in MA - some guys get a break, and some get porked - all depends on who votes all the democrats back into office ...

Case in point - look at how cheap Boston area oil is! Those guys can afford it too ... :

If you do the math I honestly can't figure out how the average slob can afford to heat their house with oil. :mad:
