| Yes, around here some are at $3.95, but others are at $3.89.
That stimulus check may be going toward gasoline for some!
((which I am still waiting for ours))

| Using volume and currency conversions, petrol was costing up to $5.98 (U.S.) per gallon here yesterday.
I normally squeeze two weeks out of a full tank, I've managed to stretch it a little further since DS has moved out. I try to fill the tank on Tuesdays when it's normally cheapest but everyone's doing the same now and the petrol stations are super busy!

| I was in a patients room today while he had on the news..something like CNN or a national news.They mentioned at that moment I was in there that gas will stay on the average or above at 4.00 a gallon in the U.S. through 2009.
First I cringed,,second I wonder how can they predict this,,do they know something we dont,,new president is comming,,its like planned out or something.Odd I know,,just bugs me when we have resources here in the stsates and in Alaska to stop this.Its like a spiral ,,high gas,,less traveling,,jobs cut,food increases,,
Ok I will get off my soap box,,LOL sorry!  |

| DH was commenting a few nights ago that it costs less to make diesel than petrol yet they charge more for it (as it's more economical?). Some things are hard to understand. Prices are just outragiously shocking in Aus.

| I still have not paid more than $3.99/gallon for gas.
Tuesday morning, I got it for $3.89/gallon.
I think this is forcing people to cut down on their driving...which is something that I think we SHOULD do (Oops, I am the one who drives 90 miles round trip a day. I couldnt afford to live if I had a job where we live right now). Not only that, it forces us to get more fuel-efficient vehicles (another plus for the environment).
