How much is gas in your area?

Anyone else NOT buying fuel today?!?!? You won't see me at the pump today!!!! This outrage has got to stop!!!

I am almost ready to pull my bicycle out of my mother in law's barn and start riding.......Not a good time to be the owner of a FORD Expedition!

Sorry everyone, but I found this on snopes.com

Hey Misti...........a fellow Texan over on PT said this about the fuel...I was just wondering if it has taken effect yet? :think:


"The State of Texas IS doing something about the gas prices for our state. A bill is currently at the house that will temporarily suspend our state gas tax, and will instantly drop our gas prices by .21 cents. It goes into vote this week and is expected to pass.

This tax suspension will last throughout the entire summer once passed."

I had heard about that, Rhonda, and I really do it happens. But, I would rather it be statewide and not just Texas. Everyone is suffering.

I had heard them say its because there are a lot less operational refineries out there than there was. They say that instead of building new ones, they are patching the old ones and they are breaking down faster than they can patch them.

I think there are a lot of excuses out there and not enough solutions. Meanwhile, oil companies pull in record profits. The rich getting richer.

Gas in town is $2.85 and at Wal-Mart, too, and Wal-mart used to be at least a little cheaper than the others!

Ours jumped to $3.49 this morning.

I was going thru town headed to the gas station at the end of town to get gas until I saw the price...$2.99. There are two gas stations in town in which the gas was still $2.88. So, I pulled in there and got it.

I quickly got my gas before the price jumped right before my eyes and asked the attendant if prices were going up. She said that she had heard about Pres. Bush suspending the gas tax and I said that I had heard that, too, but right down the street, the price had jumped. She said she didn't know that.

I told her that I assumed that they would be getting a call very shortly to change it, too, since the stations prices get raised within a short time of each other.

There I was, putting my mere $7.00 in the tank; all the money I had left!

It's $3.59 in my area.

Gas price in my area now is $4.00 a gallon :faint2:

$3.49.

I'm buying a horse and buggy.

We have three gas station; two of them, It's $3.42 and the other one, $3.39.

Exactly, Savannah. Crazy people.

We're at I think $3.45 now. With the prices going up, probably to 4 bucks a gallon this summer, we may not be traveling far from home with our trailer. It really stinks!! :sad5:

You're exacty right Savannah!
What a dumb article, is the person who wrote that article on drugs? It doesn't make any sense and who compares Gas to Coca-cola in this situation??? lol
:BatHit:

$3.48 a gallon here...it cost me $52.00 to fill up my tank and it used to cost me only $35.00 about a year ago!!

$1.20/litre. One lady on the news said it took $42 to fill up her tank.
I wouldn't know, I don't drive so I don't pay for gas.

The other day I filled up my tank, well, almost. I stopped when it got to $65.00 and all I got was 19 gallons

At this rate, I'm going to be in great shape because I am going to be riding my bike a lot more often.

Lol Pam the gas Was 1.27/litre Yesterday i'm not sure if it has gone up already it suppose to go up to 1.30/litre next week We Were lucky though we fill up our tank in our mini Van a day before the gas went up i was $64 till it was full

For real.

I went to fill up the old truck, and it was 60 bucks, and I was on HALF A TANK!

What really kills me is that I know the war is about control of oil. Freeing a nation has nothing to do with it. And this is the price we pay for it.

I guarantee you if we hadn't went to Iraq the second time, gas would be around $2.00 a gallon. At most.

But I've talked to a lot of Europeans. They have it worse than we do.

It was $3.55 for a couple of days, but it went back down to $3.39.
