Oh goodness, I don't remember. I do know when I was a young driver I could fill up the car for $20. That was in the late 80's. Those were the days.

$0.78, 1984. I remember asking Dad about what the superscript "9" at the end of the price meant.

During the 'gas wars' in the late 60s we could buy gas for less than $0.30/gal.

when i first started driving at 16 gas was 1.17.. maybe some days lower or higher depending ya know, that was only 10 years ago and now i have to take out a mortage to pay for gas! HAHA! so it was 2004-05

$.99 a gallon. it was that way for years. I could fill up my car for $10.

I can remember when $.61 sent a shock to the system. I think it had been like $.35-39 before that. Used to fill up for $5-7 in the early 80s or late 70s

For me, it was like 1.05.. back in 2001

Cheapest gas was .47 cents. Used to walk to gas station to get fuel for lawn mower. For two dollars a summer I could mown lawns for 50 cents a piece and make good money for an 8 year old.

I remember it was .68 in 1983. I had to gas up my little motorbike.....

2000ish 99 cents
05/17/2013
I remember seeing it hit $.99 when I was a wee child. Since I've been driving, the lowest I saw was about $1.39

I remember going on errands with my dad as a kid, including the gas station. I remember waiting with him in gas lines back in the 70s. The cheapest gas price I can remember was 48¢/gallon.

Around a dollar per gallon, that was a very long time ago.

i didn't start driving until i was 19, so i never payed any mind to gas prices until then. However the cheapest it's been since i started driving was 2.99 at a walmart last year. I wish i has filled up my tank that day instead fo waiting because at the end of the week it was back to 3.20-something.

I remember my mom paying like $1.50. I don't remember the lowest I actually paid. When I started driving, I had a gas guzzling car, so I always paid a lot.

Somewhere around $.90 in the late 70's/early 80's I think.

When I was a kid, I remember 75cents. That would be so nice!

.97 cents. I remember being a little girl and the rounding prices to the dollar was fun!

The cheapest I remember is 1.89 back in the '80s.

I want to say somewhere around $1.29.

In the late 90s when I had just started driving I remember seeing 0.79 one time. I think it was usually around 0.90 in those days. Sigh...makes me feel old.

I can remember 25 cents a gallon and even remember the commercial advertising it. I think it was Texaco. That was way back when the attendants wore clean white pressed uniforms woth the sharp caps.
