Post Gas Prices

I'm really curious what everyone is paying for gas. In Frankfort it's $1.66 right now, but it was $1.69 earlier in the week. I paid $1.82 in Ohio last Sunday when I was coming home from school. 12 gallons for $22.46. I was coming back from Philly after a crew race on a bus the night before and gas along the PA turnpike was $1.64 and I was really considering buying a five gallon tank and filling it up with enough gas to get me to Grayson, KY so I could fill up on cheap gas. Anyway, I'm trying to make my quarter of a tank last until Thursday-PAY DAY!!! Thank god my car gets good gas milage. And if anyone is driving in Frankfort by chance and sees a maroon camry pulled over on 127 I finally ran out of gas!

I Live in Alabama and depending on where you get your gas ( Shell, Texaco, etc.) it ranges from $1.45 to $1.56 for regular.With summer coming, I have a feeling these prices won't last long.

That's absurdly cheap! Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, we have to pay $1.90 or so for regular. The highest in the country...
Expected to hit $2.50 in either July or August. Can't wait.

It depends where you go. If you go to Gulf, they are at least 10 cents cheaper than Exxon, which is right across the street. Oh yeah, I have a question.
Is New Jersey the only state where it is illegal to pump your own gas? Whenever we go out of state, I'll be like,"Run out of gas right on the border so we can pump our own gas" !! I think it's sooo fun to pump your own gas...but if it's raining, it's nice to sit in the car!!

You can't pump your own gas in New Jersey... ...that is very bizarre..I have never heard of that before. I have been to many states and as far as I know it is legal to pump your own gas everywhere I've been. That just like blows my mind, I guess you learn something new everyday!

Funny thing is I would probably prefer to have someone else do it, unless they were really slow or something...and here you get excited about pumping you own gas, lol.

I've got the perfect solution for all these rising gas prices and much much more: Stop using cars for a year. That will make the gas company get mad and force them to lower prices! Don't worry about going anywere, just take a leave from work and rest at home.

Can't we all just get along?

Actually, Cokies, the highest is in the midwest. I paid $2.23 for regular over the weekend. We're expected to hit $3 by July. That is why I walk or ride my bike everywhere.

Just wanted to update - according to gaspricewatch, these are the gas prices as of this morning:

Highest: $2.49 in Death Valley, CA
Lowest: $1.20 in Lincolnton, GA

Yup... Looks like my bike will be getting a little more use than normal this summer.
