Prices for Diesel Fuel vs Gasoline

In Oklahoma diesel was always cheaper than gas by a good bit but then about 4 years ago it started climbing to the point it was a dollar or more higher than gas,then back to within 30 to to 50 cents more. Last couple months diesel finally cheaper than gas again by a good margin. Crazy. Just been driving the gas Toyota FJ when gas lower and the diesel truck when diesel lower. No sensible explanation here but plenty of excuses. One dealer tried to convince me that the initial uptick in diesel was because it cost more to haul it cause it's heavier than gas.

Diesel's the same price as 89 octane here. $2.79 for diesel, $2.55 for 87 octane gas.

Diesel locally $2.49
Gas locally $2.65
With discount right now Diesel costs me $1.69.!!!

What discount do you have and can I borrow it??

Grocery store.
Get discount points based on purchases PLUS do an on-line survey get 50 extra points PLUS buy gift card get 4X points.
Grocery store has best pricing overall so each month doing routine shopping/survey each week and buying gift card which we use to pay for groceries we end up with $0.80--$1.00/gallon discount over current pump price.

My theory is that with the price of oil dropping like a rock, the oil industry is trying to avoid dropping prices as long as possible. More regular gas is consumed every day so it is staying higher, longer. At least that's my theory. ;-)

Been bouncing around here lately. Now some stations diesel is up to 15 cents less than regular, some about the same price, and some 10-15 cents higher. Make no sense.
