Gas prices

Southern California. . . $4.45 for regular!

Ugh! I didn't notice the price-per-gallon; however, on my first day to work I had to top off my tank (it was about a 1/4 full) and it was a whopping $64.00. I felt like I had been punched in the stomach.

I think I was trying to avoid looking at the sign when I pulled into the station so I didn't bust out in tears on my way to work. Showing up all "puffy eyed" on my first day probably wouldn't make a good impression.

I have to fill up again tomorrow AM, I'll force myself to look then.

Jerseyville IL, $4.19 a gallon today.

in hoffman estates IL 4.35 a gallon.UGH :x :x

SoCal is now $4.49! :evil:

Around the Raleigh area of NC, gas is ranging any where from
$3.93 to over $4. Just depends on where you are at. We have 2 stations right across from each other and one is almost always 10 cents higher than the other one.

Portland, Oregon - $4.25/gallon for regular

central NJ - $3.92 - $4.01, it makes me so sick though.. even when I had my part-time job, it barely paid off with the gas prices..

$4.08 here in North East Texas & I dread filling up. :x

My brother-in-law used to work in the oil industry, and he has said for years that the long term goal of "big oil" is to get gas prices in America up to $5.00 per gallon. Even worse, I read some "expert" opinions lately that say it could get as high as $7.00 in the next couple of years.

Since my husband has to commute 175 miles round trip to work, it's a HUGE expense for us already.

OMG that is just CRAZY!!!!!! Are they going to increase people's wages so they can afford to go to work,...DOUBT THAT :twisted:

I work in the oil field & don't get any discounts either.The main reason for gas price hike is the darn war & the shrinking value of our dollar in todays economy.If we could get off the foreign oil tit we would be a lot better off since we do have a lot of oil/gas in our own country available for exploration/refinement.

Waterbury, CT - the prices range from 4.23 & up. Some of the stations around here are doing the cash/credit deal...its around $4.42 if you use your credit card & $4.32 if you pay cash...

Northern California. Just a few weeks ago I was paying $4.57 for the cheap grade, a full tank cost me about $75, and a full tank lasts me only 4 days based on the nature of my second job. The prices have started to trickle down a little, and this morning I paid $4.31

Still, it's frustrating because I have cut so so so far down on recreational use of my vehicle. I am down to using my car ONLY to work my jobs and am down to 1 grocery store run a week. It sucks that so many people are just trying to use gas just to stay hard-working, and it's still bleeding everyone dry. I remember when a full tank of gas was totally topped off at $20 for me, and I'm sure lots of folks around here remember when it was even less.

Oxford GA. $4.06 per gallon. I agree with Cajon, we need to stop depending on other countries for our oil. I would rather pay $5.00 or more a gallon if the money stays in the US rather than continue to send the money to forign countries for their oil.

I guess I'm lucky and should quit ****ing about the $3.89 that I paid yesterday here in Central Missouri. Also, another GOOD thing is that before, the $105 that it cost us to fill up our truck and lasted us MAYBE 4 days will fill up our "new" used car twice, and will last us about a week. So we have cut our weekly gas bill by around $400 a month. Of course now we have a car payment but it is basically paid for in the gas savings, and we have done our part to cut down on oil consumption. The only time I can see us using the truck is to go on hunting trips and once every couple of weeks or so to go the few miles into the town we live near to get chicken feed and dog food and occasional camping trips with the dogs and kids.
