Oh, my!! I accidentally put $1.45 didn't I???? I meant $2.45!!!! LOL!!! Sorry about that Nanny!! All this gas talk is making me lose my brains, LOL!!!
HAHAHAHA!!! I was wondering but didn't want to question---you know how sometimes a certain station will just run a special-thought maybe you missed out on it. But gas is about the same price as a gallon of milk-problem is we don't need 20 gallons or more at a time that's why it doesn't seem to hurt so much to buy the milk. Don't know what needs to be done to destroy this monster but there's gotta be someway!
Since gas prices just went up again, I thought this was funny.

pooker.. now come to think of it.. THAT IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUE!!!!!!! Thanks for a laugh...
ok, I've seen posts from you guys refering to your DH. What is a DH? I am assuming it is your husband, but I don't know what the "D" would be for....
I feel the D can stand for numerous words-Dear, Darling, DA$%-depending on the mood of the day...the gas prices here are over $3 but at least we are not in Atlanta where it's over $5! Talk about price gouging--kick them when they are down seems to be the motto!!
the gas prices here in Upstate NY was at 3.59 when I came to work this morning, don't know what it is at now. I just bought gas yesterday evening at 2.72 now that is a jump in a half. [/img]
Here in Tampa the highest I have seen so far is $3.01/gallon. They say it will be higher. The stations here are already running out and cant get more in.
Ugh - gas. It sucks so bad right now here in IL, we just hit $2.99 for unleaded and premium is like $3.29 a gallon now!
In Atlanta here...thankfully the station on my corner is holding steady around 2.89. Most are 2.89-3.29 or so. A few outrageous gougers are seen at $4+.
Someone I know mentioned one of their local stations went from 3.29 to 5.99 yesterday in a span of 45 minutes. They promptly reported them to the governor's office for gouging.
Times like these can bring out the worst in people.
Gas here was 2.39 before katrina hit now it is 3.00 supposed to be 3.50 by saturday and they are talking 4 bucks by the end of next week.
In new jersey we just filled up at 2.78 gallon yesterday but was told by tomorrow it will definitely be over 3.00. Our truck is parked we only run my car now and my hubby just got 2 motorcycles they should be on the road in a week or two.
Here in Western PA...
I filled up my car 2 days ago for 2.49 (regular)... went up to 2.85 this morning... 15 minutes later when I past the same station again it was 2.99..,I am about to go out tonight and I don't think I will even look!
We just moved here in January where we were paying 1.67!!
Just thought I would edit..went out right after I originally posted and it was 3.19.
well I know what everyone means. We just put gas in our car this morning and it was at 2.99. worst part was we were at the gas station on monday and it was going for 2.65. talk about a jump in just a few days. In some ways I'm lucky. I don't drive so I get around by either walking or riding my bike and DH has only 3 mile comute a day. but he said that if it goes much higher he is going to ride his bike to work. the worst part is kids want to go here and there and when we tell them no because we want to save gas that act like we are punishing them. can't wait til they have there own car and have to pay these prices. I actually heard a rumor today that they might shut down school buses because they cant afford the gas. I hope thats not true
Saw it yesterday for $1.54 a litre (BIG OUCH!!!) in a small town which is between in the middle of nowhere . . . you got it, PRICE GOUGING! There are approx. 4 litres in an American gallon so you can figure that one out
Here in town it's $1.19/litre (so $4.60/gallon)
I live in ft. Monroe VA (Close to VA Beach) and I have seen gas as high as 3.19 today. I filled up 2 days ago at 2.52 and it still cost me $60 and I was not even on empty!! They have even run out of gas at several stations today. ARGGGGGG!!!
Hi guys,
Here in Melbourne Australia our gas has reached $1.30 per liter and we have been told that it will go up to as much as $1.60, everyone here is feeling it.
I live in Miami and I got it at $2.83 yersterday for Regular. This is reasonable here. Don't you just love how they blame all of this on Katrina? Hallo? Like it wasn't high enough before the Hurricane?

Guess what??? I just came home from getting gas... , bread, eggs, sugar & milk. I also needed gum tex but Michael's didn't have any, DARN). First I went to the AF base where my hubby works to get gas. Couldn't get gas there because the lines were so long. They even had SP's (security police) going down the line making sure everyone getting gas had military id's. Then went to Bookshires to get gas... no gas! Finally I went to a Chevron station closer to my house. I had to get gas because I had less then a 1/4 tank left. Gas was $2.99!!!! When I had passed it 20 minutes earlier the price was only $2.46!! I can't believe this!! Along with all the bad things that is happening in La. right now they go & raise the gas prices in the state! Go figure!
I can't believe this!! This morning when I took the boys to school at 7 a.m. gas was $2.88 here in Princeton, KY .....when I went back out at 11:30 it was up to $3.42.......ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!! I was told it will be up to $4.00 here by the end of the weekend!

Living in Pensacola....our gas is about $3/gal right now. But...I'm more worried about actually having gas available at this time. I'm getting scared about ....god forbid...another hurricane coming (it is Sept)....and everyone needing to evacuate!!! I'm worried that if one does come, it will be difficult to leave the area b/c there isn't any gas....anywhere!!!!
Right now, I'll pay whatever I need to just to have some available when/if the time comes!!! I haven't stayed for a hurricane yet....and have no desire too, espically w/my 2 yr old son!!! But from everyone's predicitions...it's only going to get worse!!! Hurricanes and Gas!!
I live In New Bern NC (about 45 min away from Beach) and our gas is $3.19 to $3.40. Just yesterday it was $2.69. Somebody is making some money!!
gas here in the middle northern part of michigan is 3.19 up to 3.49 a gallon ... I am sooo glad I live in the city at least I can walk to work if I have to!!!!!!
You know, these gas prices honestly wouldn't bother me so much if there were ANY sidewalks in this area!! You can't walk anywhere, or get around in any other way than cars, literally. We are so dependent on gas, it's sad. There aren't any sidewalks, bike paths, nothing. Not even in neighborhoods, and if you try to walk on the non-existent shoulders, you'd get killed. I don't know what the city planners were thinking, but now it's really hurting! At least Californians can bike to work if they have to! Now those Hybrids are looking really good, huh?
I guess it takes something like this to get our energy-efficient rears in gear! Ha!
My brother is in northern Cailfornia. He said that there is one station there charging $5.85/ gallon. That's more than minimum wage! This is ridiculous!
Well my son just called me. Here in New Jersey our gas prices are 3.29 to 3.69. A gas station just dropped their price to 3.00 the lines are unbelieveable they go about 1 mile down the road and now the police are there making sure everything stays peaceful. Its really nuts around here and now acouple of gas stations have closed right around our area. Its pretty bad when filling your tank cost as much as food for my family for one week.
On tuesday, the day after Katrina hit, I filled up with gas on my way to work. It was still $2.49 a gallon. I then Had to drive to a job site about 2 hours away and was checking gas prices on the way. On the way back from the job site (4 hours later) One place raised their diesel prices 80 Cents yet another had only raised their prices 2 Cents (still cant' figure that one out because they are only 5 miles apart, however their on I-80 and truckers need it!)
When I drove by the gas station I had filled up at (only 6-7 hours earlier) They raised the cheapest gas by 60 cents. The premium they had raised 75 cents.
It is just crazy, however about 90% of gas prices rose on Tuesday/Wednesday morning to $2.99 up to $3.19 and we havne't seen any more price changes. So it was a major shock the first day, however they haven't kept going up, so that is partially good.
Hopefully it doesn't do that major of a jump again or I don't know what will happen. The business I work for just moved to a new building (40 miles from where they were) So now I drive 55 miles one way to work. This week has killed me, but we do what we have to do b/c there is no way I would make it to work otherwise.
