It was $3.73 this morning. It will probably be $3.75 when I go home.

I saw on the news over the weekend in somplace in NJ, people were waiting in line to buy gas before the price went up. There was a long line. It reminded me of the '70's when there was a gas shortage and people waited in line for hours to buy gas. I hope we don't see that happen, again.

As of yesterday gas was only $3.58 here. I am down to a little less than 1/4 of a tank and am really dreading getting gas. I have $21.00 til next payday. That isn't gonna get me a lot of gas!!

It is $3.59 here as well.
Todd is filling 'er up today for our road trip.

Even with the gas prices at these prices, it usually takes $35 to fill up the tank (which gets 420 miles per fillup). Even if prices down south are $3.75, it'd cost just $5 more per tank. We expect to have to fill up the car only 3 times on our trip of over 1150 miles.

I am so thankful I did my research on the most economical vehicle (price and gas mileage) at the time (2006). My old car would have cost me quite a bit in gas each and every week to get to work. And this roadtrip? Forgetaboutit!

I'm sorry for those who have the guzzlers. I couldnt imagine what a financial strain it would be to fill 'er up every week.

It just went up the other day to $3.89 at many stations, but we heard yesterday that some were already at $3.95. Gayla, $7.00 would be terrible! We would really have to cut way back on the miles we drive somehow.
