It would be so nice if we didn't depend so much on oil... Sad5

Hopefully in the future more alternative ways can be available to the people....

It's $3.71 in my area. When I see some of your guys are at $3.40's to $3.50's, don't look too bad to me. haha

Why.... oh why?!!! bawling

It was up to $3.74 here, but "dropped" to $3.68. Not much of a drop, considering the fact that it went up 25 cents in one jump last time.

It's up to $3.59 here; slightly cheaper at the Wal-Mart in the bigger town 30 miles away. Since I take the paper there on Tuesday nights, I can swing by there and get a little relief...

This is insane. Like Rob said, we're a dime under 4 bucks here. We are actually considering selling our trailer. We have a GMC Safari to haul it, and that's the only reason we need a vehicle that big. We could get a 'regular' mini-van and tow a pop-up trailer, which would be a huge savings. We LOVE to camp, but at this point in our lives we're going only once a year, maybe twice if we're lucky. Just seems a little silly to pay higher gas the rest of the year for a few weeks of enjoyment. It's not easy giving things up, but with this economy.... No

It's $4.20 here Faint2

I wish I had enough money to buy me a Hybrid car. I don't know... high prices on gas actually affects everything... all the things we buy, clothes, food... they ar all transported and w/ high gas prices... everything else goes up bawling

That's why... if you can support your local farmers... do it... try going to local farmers markets to buy your fruits and vegetables there Thumbsup

Carol, I have an idea..........Why don't you see if all of you out in California can set a trend by lowering the gas prices. batEyes

Me too. Someone else mentioned how gas prices affect everything, because everything is shipped...oh, what a mess. No I do hope this can be fixed soon.

I don't think I could decide on one of those, even if my gas bill reached $100 per fill up. They're expensive to buy, expensive to maintain, and from what I was told, in cases of accidents there is a delay in firemen extracting you from the vehicle because they don't want to electrocute anyone.

I don't know what the solution is, but hope they figure something out soon.
