Before going out of town on Sunday the price was $1.319 per litre. On the radio this morning there was suggestion that the price is due to hike up today and figures of $1.50/litre were mentioned. Apparently due to all of the refineries doing maintenance at the same time. (If it can be believed!)
Usually only fill up once every 6 weeks though, so it doesn't hurt me much. Daughter travels 70km each day, so $1.50 will really sting.

$3.65
And we are towing the camper up north to go camping this weekend. Although, after calculating gas + camp site + groceries, it's still less expensive to drive the big truck towing the camper than to stay at a hotel and eat out all weekend.

3.04 USD/gal in the suburbs of New Orleans. Due to unfriendly traffic, I'm too chicken to ride my bike to work - but do use it for short errands around the neighborhood, and will probably do more that way.

$3.44 for regular.
I just hate the fact our gas costs more than a lot of places in Cook County (Chicago area), they have much higher local taxes than we do so I just don't get it.

$3.29 for regular, on the west side of Boise. We have parked the 4-Runner in favor of bike commuting for me and taking the motorcycle for Mr. Tater. The only time the truck comes out is for a grocery run.

Here on BASE it was 3.60 and we are suppose to be cheaper then retailers in the civilian sector, not this time. Thank goodness we live on base DH bikes to and from work, I'm a stay at home mother, so anywhere Kaitlyn and I go we are just hoofing it now, put her in the jogger and we are off. I just pack the grocercies around her!
I'm just sick though, we are going camping this weekend and we will HAVE to fill up and that's going to be at LEAST $70.
But, it is serisously getting VERY concerning, it's going to really start hurtin the economy.
