It's been like that in my area for as long as I can remember. The further
north (away from San Francisco) that you get, the cheaper the gas prices
are. Unfortunately, I live in the "wine country" (read: tourist country)
so a lot of places charge way too much for gas because they know that the
tourists buy it anyway. And they do. Lately I've only been buying gas
about once every 2 weeks, though, so I don't really care that much.
