    Re: how much did you pay for gas on your last fill up?

    Might as well keep this going...

    Regular was $2.58 per gallon on Monday
    On Thursday, the same station was charging $3.17

    Thursday's local news showed some local Mom & Pop gas stations that had run out of gas. I think things are going to get a lot worse before they get better.

      I am wondering if DH can bike the 20 minutes to work , but I honestly have no idea if he can ride a bike! anyway we don't own one.

      Last night we got 9 gallons for 30$, and we got it cause there is a good chance the gas will run out around here. (1 in 5 stations is already out in charlotte)

            CT Governor Dick Blumenthal was at a capitol press briefing yesterday calling for 1) a federal investigation into possible price gouging by the oil companies and surging oil/gas prices (gas doubled in price in 48 hours) and 2) an excess profits tax on oil companies to rein in the ridiculous increases

              I can't believe how much the price has gone up in the past few months. Thank goodness, I able to ride a bicycle to work, my wife is able to walk to work and the kids walk to school.
              It's all relative. If you're used to paying $1.97 and then it's $2.50, then it's $3.10 you start to feel the pinch.

                $3 for the cheap stuff in town, but I went to Walmart, used my discount and got it for $2.85. As I was pulling out, Walmart changed their price to $3 a gallon.

                  We live in Canada...just paid $1.15 per litre at Superstore which gives a 7.5 cent rebate per litre to use towards groceries.
                  I have no idea what it would be in gallons.
                  We're on the west coast and would love to know the prices in other parts of Canada! Ouch!
