Here is $2.99 at one is the lowest and the one on the main highway next to the exit off the Interstate is $3.11, I cant believe how they can jack prices up like this! With my 500 mile round trip this weekend I'm going to go broke! Good thing I get 32 MPG on the Interstate!!
I can only imagine what its going to go up to today...I heard its supposed to be well over $3.00 today, but by the looks of this thread--there are people that are paying well over $3.00 already, YIKES!

As of last night most stations in Orlando were out of gas. I passed by 5 stations with no gas before I finally came to one that had 4 pumps out of 12 still carrying premium. So, I paid $3.15/gallon for premium. Unleaded was $2.99 most places around here, which is about $.60 hike from Monday.

€1.56 per liter....


Here we are at $.70 a liter, although some gas stations have reached $.87 a liter.
Everyone's here is having nightmares about the idea of it reaching the dollar a liter mark.

Movin' on up!
I paid $2.88, yesterday. Most stations are at $2.99, for regular. On my way home, I passed a Shell station, at $2.79 - too bad, that I'd already filled up.

I'm going to visit the twins, today and gas in their town is always about .10 more, than Tucson.

I talked to my mom who lives 2 hrs from me, and I'm going home this weekend and she said to fill up here cuz they are saying that they will be out of gas at all the gas stations back home this weekend, how scary is that?!

I'm in Rochester NY, I was at pump and the prices were $3.09. We've had a few stations run out, but that mostly at stations where the prices are the "lowest".

I'm on a 700mi round trip this weekend (w/ cat in tow!). Cost is one thing, I just hope there's no shortage.

Crossing fingers that panicked over-buying will be temporary, and there'll be gas when its time for me to go home!

It's been time to make fuel efficient cars since the 1970s!!!

$3.19 is am but some stations are limiting how much you can buy. We should be good for another week as I'm just driving to work and back no extra driving that is out of my way. Might need some gas for the lawn mower though.

last night it was 3.19 a gallon. this is going to effect those of us who make min wadge (5.15) or a little more. if it gets to 3.25 thats half my hourly rate........ i litteraly won't beable to afford to go to work if these prices keep at it. and winter is fast approaching. you can't really ride a bike in 5 inches of snow. (believe me i have tried) and walking in sub zero temps is not recomended
though i guess i could walk now, its only 8 miles on roads with no side walks to speak of. and little to no street lights.

Gas prices here have been slowly going down, thank goodness...we peaked at $3.49 a gallon! Today it was $3.19 a gallon. But of course if you goto Sam's Club gas station you save .03 a gallon, which we did.

Hi Vanessa!

I wanted to welcome you to the Boards, I just saw you are from SA. We had a house guest the past 6 weeks from Kloof, SA. She was a lovely person!
