It's been $3.19 here for days!
The section of 90 I live on for about 30 miles either way is the most expensive gas in all of southern MN!!

I'm gonna have to find out how much it is down there when I come home the 1st weekend in June. If its cheaper here, I'm gonna have to completely fill up here so I don't have to get gas while I'm home! I figured it would be more expensive here than the little towns back home

Just what I was thinking! It's £1 a litre here. It costs me about £40 (nearly $80) to fill my car and it's a very small car!

But I guess the cost of living (and wages) are higher over here for everything.

On May 3, I filled up both tanks on the van and it was just under $2.90US. Today it is running $3.24 except by the Sam's club where the members pay $3.04 and the station across the street is also asking $3.04. The same chain elsewhere is $3.24. The closest to me - $3.26.

How about us Canadians - gas prices in Toronto are now at $1.16 a litre. With 4 litres to a gallon, that would be $4.64 per gallon!

Funny thing is, last week (I think, but my time could be wrong) a report was released that confirmed we're being ripped off at the pumps. So, instead of lowering the price in response to the report, the very next day gas prices significantly increased. And, to add fuel to the fire (sorry about the pun), our wonderful Prime Minister refuses to issue any tax reductions to us. Way to help us out Mr. Harper (BTW, you SUCK!).

I hope all those people that voted him into power drive gas-guzzling SUVs.

It was $2.89 here today
(BUT i get mine at the grocery stores near us- at kroger- if you spend over $100 on your groceries you get 10 cents off your gas when you swipe your kroger plus card at the gas station (plus 3 more cents off if you're a kroger plus member- so i guess i "saved" 13 cents a gallon today. every little bit helps.) Also one of the other grocery stores near us (schnucks) will give you a $2 cupon for every $50 you spend on groceries and a $4 cupon for every $80 so if ya'll have grocery store gas stations- it might be a good idea to check them out- because gas and groceries are both necessities for many people- so you might be able to save a little that way.

We have Wal-Mart gas stations here where you get $.03 off when you buy and use a Wal-Mart gift card. It's worth it IMO. Every little bit helps.

We just jumped up yesterday so the "nicer" neighborhoods here are $3.49/gal. So I filled up in the city for $3.39/gal (between nice and bad).

Gas prices really suck. Yesterday when I went into work at 8am regular gas was $2.99. Four hours later when I went to lunch it was $3.09! I knew it was matter of time before it went up, I just didn't think it would go up that much so quickly.

Good thing I filled up the day before.

Gas is ridiculous!!

In Spokane, we are at $3.40/gallon. Apparently, we are the highest gas price state besides California or something. SO, glad I'm getting the H outta here!

www.gasbuddy.com is a great site. If you scroll down and look on the left hand side, there is a picture of the US "temperatures" of gas prices. It's pretty interesting!
