I just got back from a trip to Illinois. The lowest price I paid for the 10% ethanol blend was $2.70/gallon. That was in Platte City, MO north of Kansas City. The lowest price I noticed along I-70 was $2.75/gallon. I think that was around Oak Grove, MO. It's about a fourth of the way from KC to Columbia.
It seems to be costing about $2.90/gallon in southeast/south central Nebraska.

I think the last time I bought gas it was $2.79. Tonight I noticed the
signs were reading $3.15. We're a hell of a long way from the Colonial
pipeline but any excuse is good for the traditional Memorial Day ramp up.

My governor declared an emergency, even though most of the state is
not affected by the pipeline but it does freeze gas prices so greedy
station owners can't gouge us.
