Update on prices as of 3PM:
HEB: $2.999
Albertson's: $2.819 (unchanged from the morning price)
Chevron: $3.019
Ppaid $3.08 for 87 octane in San Diego.
This to avoid paying $5.50/gal (or so, minimum 2 gallons) upon return
of our rental car (a Honda Hybrid Civic) had we not been able to
produce a receipt from within seven miles of the rental agency. So,
by comparison, it was a bargain :-). Naturally, around the corner,
after filling up, we saw gas for a more reasonable $2.799.
I was not too thrilled with the agency's seven-mile policy,
especially given that I was driving a vehicle that could go seven
miles on two cups of gas or so, but they were the only ones we found
who would rent us that particular model of car.

By the way: the Honda Hybrid Civic is a very nice drive.
