I also remember that at that same time Delta reported their average fuel price was around $1.90 per gallon. When you deal in high volumes, the "sticker" price does not apply.
Price at the refinery, I highly doubt you are paying less than that delivered. FWIW this is what my airline sends out weekly for tracking jet fuel prices.

IATA - Fuel Price Monitor

It doesn't matter anyways, it's just a little thing I do. I don't gas if I'm off by $10. Let it go.
