The price of Gas where you are

[furrykidsmother]

Here in Southern NH, most of the Gas Stations went from about $2.53 yesterday morning to $2.79 this morning. Unfortunately it is probably only going to get worse. How much is Gas where you are?

[dukedogsmom]

The cheapest I've seen it here is $2.59. However, that was before Katrina. I'm afraid we're going to be totally screwed now.

[beeniesmom]

This is really becoming unbearable.
I really hate this situation and while I am having a hard time with the increases I think that there are others hurting even more than me. I am fortunate enough to work very close to home (about 7 miles) but I know many people that travel 50+ miles a day just to get to work. I think the government should do more.
:(

[lv4dogs]

It went up about 30cents from yesterday in my area.
If I travel about 20-30 minutes to the city you can find it for about 2.60 if you really look.

Yesterdays average was about 2.65, today's average 2.95 in my area!!!!
This is getting to be insane.

[Lobodeb]

I saw a man changing the sign this morning from $2.99 to $3.09. :eek:

[PJ's Mom]

It's around 2.65 here. :(

[momoffuzzyfaces]

While it's going to be really hard for me to pay higher gas prices, at least I have a roof over my head and food and water. I personally feel very blessed.

Maybe now the government will build more refineries and learn not to put them all in one area. :(

[Logan]

When I went to work this morning, the one station where I usually stop was $2.419. This afternoon, when I ran home for lunch, it was $3.099, for the same, regular unleaded gas. :eek:

[JenBKR]

I wish I would've filled up 2 days ago...It was 2.39 by my house...last night it was 2.59 and by this morning 2.69. It's out of control. I heard it's supposed to go up even more :eek: I won't be able to afford to got to work!

Me too! My hubby wanted to fill up over the weekend, but I still had half a tank. It was only $2.79 then. I'll be lucky if I can find anything less than $3.00 now. :rolleyes:

[k9krazee]

Its $3.19 here today!!!!

[Roxyluvsme13]

I dont drive yet...but here its about $2.70 something!! IT WENT UP A WHOLE QUARTER THIS MORNING!!!! GAHH!!! Gas is way too expensive by the time i drive...it will be like $5!!!!!

[Cincy'sMom]

We filled both our cars for $2.59 last night. I didn't pay attention on my way in this morning, however the local news wesbites are reporting prices of $3.09 and up.

Two people I work with live less than a 1/2 mile each from me. We are talking about putting together a carpooling schedule. I hope it works out...

[furrykidsmother]

It just went over $3.00.:eek: :eek: Someone just came in and told me. OMG!!! I too am grateful that it is just rising gas prices we are having to deal with, but it is still hard to accept that the prices have gone up so much in such a short time!

[manda_moo87]

Here its 107.9 Canadian... I have no idea how to convert it into US $ though. :p

[ParNone]

It was $2.59 this morning. I'm sure it'll be higher when I drive by a station this afternoon.

I've got an SUV but have been conserving like mad in protest of the higher prices. From 40 gallons a month to 20 gallons a month.

Don't know how you do it. How can I use less gas when I use my SUV ONLY to go to work and back. ditto hubby. :(

hiya beeniesmom!

I stopped coming home for lunch everyday. I run all errands on the way home. I stopped going across town every weekend to see family and friends.

If my job wasn't so precarious right now, I'd buy an eletric motor scooter to go back and forth to work and just use my car on the weekends.

[Glacier]

1.17 per litre or 4.70 per gallon!

Wow, it's that high in Italy too. That's why everyone goes around in Vespas and scooters.

[kimboe]

Does the states go by litres? cuase here its 102.9 cents a litre

[lvpets2002]

:rolleyes: Yes here close to Dallas we was 2.59 & went to 2.70.. I dont think we will see it getting lower since Horrible Katrina did her thing.. Hey I just dont drive any more than I have too..

[buckner]

The gas station right by my house was at $2.499 last night. This morning, as expected, it was $3.099. However, I believe it's up to $3.599 in some parts of my city.

Thank GOD my dad warned me about the sudden increase in gas and as to why, because I filled up Monday (I was low anyways...) and that should be last at least a month, because I'm on a major conserving streak. I pay for my own gas and insurance, and I no longer have a job. And I don't have time for a job, so I'm conserving my money too..

[katienoonan]

It costs $3.19 approximately. I had seen it going up in price a little through town.

[davidpizzica]

In my area of Pittsburgh, the average price is $2.69 a gallon. It won't be long before it's over $3.00!

[kittycats_delight]

you guys in the U.S. get your gas by the gallon right? Here in Canada it is by the litre. So there are 4 litres in a gallon. It is 1.19 a litre which means $4.76 a gallon but that is in canadian dollars so it would be in American dollars...$4.00 a gallon.

[catnapper]

Our prices are still right around $2.50. Mom called me today and said her area is up to $3.09. She's coming to visit me tomorrow so she said she's going to make sure she fills up before she leaves! :D

[joanofark]

It's $3.09 here!:eek: On the news they said it should be $3.50 by Christmas...

[RobiLee]

I just heard on the news that it was $5.87 somewhere in Atlanta!:eek: :eek: :eek:

[crsvstang]

It was $2.49 yesterday morning near my house, then yesterday after noon it already went up to $2.60.

I was coming home this afternoon and rode by the gas station and it was up to $2.80.

I don't know what we are going do. My husband has to drive 40 minutes each way to work.

[Roxyluvsme13]

Omg i just got an update gas here is over $3!!! and by the weekend...its supposed to be up to $5!!!!:eek: :eek:

[krazyaboutkatz]

I just saw it for $2.79 and I thought that this was high. It'll probably go up to $3.00 very soon. Luckily I work close to home.

[Buddy Blaze Lover]

$2.67!:(

That is scary and CRAZY!!! OMG!!!!:eek:

[Freckles]

I needed gas today and it was $2.62 a gallon for regular.

[anna_66]

Last night the gas in our area was $2.64....today it's $3.09. Man, that's a $.45 jump:eek:

[k9krazee]

It is still $3.19 where I'm at but up in Baldwin, MI it is almost $3.50!! I can remember when we were shocked prices were going to go over $1!!!

[moosmom]

I just got back from a job interview and it's up to $3.19/gal at one station, another it's $3.09. I'm sure Bush is laughing all the way to the bank. :mad:

[dogzr#1]

It is around $3.00 here. My family travels ALOT!! My two brothers are in college and are gone most of the day. Lets see, here is about how many miles we drive each day:

Gabriel (eldest brother)- to college around 45miles, then back another 45miles. Then just around town doing whatever he wants 10miles. All in all around 100miles a day.

Daniel (2nd eldest brother)- college is around 1 minute from house so hardly any gas wasted there but he travels to his girlfriends house which is aroun 40 miles away. Sometimes he goes but he doesn't go all the time. Roughly 30miles a day. Give or take.

Mom and Step dad- Mom drives 10min to work and Step dad drives 15minutes. Then they go pick me up from school along with my other two brothers in high school. So around 100miles a day. (Both parents)

Plus to Wal- Mart or H-E-B (I think h-e-b is only in texas) around 30miles a week. They have to go almost everyday with 5full grown boys at the house at all times.

So if my calculations are correct we drive around: 1500 miles each week. (reducing some miles since we don't follow that exact schedule the entire time.)

[lizbud]

It's 3.49 gal for regular unleaded here.

[jazzcat]

It was $2.49 this morning, $2.69 by afternoon and $2.89 by evening. That is the lower priced gas too, a lot of other places are $2.97 and $2.99.

[Roxyluvsme13]

$5.87?!?!??! OMG my uncle said here in TN where i live that its supposed to be up to $5 a gallon this weekend!!!! GAHHH!!!! i would walk places if i could drive....THIS SO STINKS!!

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

It's $1.05 a litre here I think, I'm not sure what that is in US dollars though...

[Roxyluvsme13]

This stinks...GAS IS WAYYYY TOOOO HIGH!!!!!!!

[RobiLee]

It is $3.09 here in my part of Ohio.

[chocolatepuppy]

$3.09 here too. I'm glad I only work a mile from my home! Hubby drives about 12 miles.

[Roxyluvsme13]

This is bad...my moms car is an intrepid and its like a gas guzzler!!! it like takes $40 to fill it up...that means less shopping for me :(

[Jamieejo85]

$3.19:mad: :rolleyes: :( :mad:

[Uabassoon]

Last night I think it was around $2.60 then today I was driving home and noticed that it was up to $2.89.

[kimboe]

Tomorrow it wil be 122.9 cents a litre

[sandragonfly]

a block away from my home: $2.78/gallon then a mile more, $2.89/gallon. :rolleyes:

I biked a lot lately to keep my car dehydrate & save her a drink!! even only if she needs 12 gallons of gas juice.

orangutango.. $1.05? then $4.20 per gallon, so that's $....delight kitty? :D (errm, how did you figure,subtracted 76 cents?)

well, I'll not be surprised to see $3 or something tomorrow ...unless I see $10. :rolleyes:

[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

3.20...

[zookeeperinaltha]

This morning it was 2.85 and I heard tomorrow it will be 3.04

[JenBKR]

Went up to 2.99 this morning :( I wish I could ride a bike or walk or something to work, but I'd be afraid of getting hit on the busy highway!

In these parts regular was $3.00 yesterday. Who knows about today. :rolleyes: :eek:

[dogzr#1]

This morning it is now 3.19

[Samantha Puppy]

Tuesday it was $2.59 at the cheapest. Today it was $3.19.

[furrykidsmother]

I decided to put another $20.00 in before it goes up again. I got lucky, it was still $3.00 when I got there. He told me it was going up as soon as they changed the signs to $3.26:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

[elizabethann]

It's about $3.49 in NH right now (at least in Concord). On the news last night, the Hess Station on S. Willow St. in Manchester was closed because they ran out (at a cheap $2.69).

I have to go and get gas at lunchtime. I'm going to go on the gas website to see where the cheapest is in Concord and make my way there.

The Atlanta gas at $5+ sounds like gas gouging which is illegal. Hopefully, they'll will put a stop to that.

I really need to buy a Vespa scooter... and fast!

[Sassy_luvr]

Yesterday in Murffreesboro Tennessee(45 min. Nashville) it was $2.99 for regular.

[catlover4ever]

This morning on my ride to work the cheapest was $2.99 and the highest I saw was $3.69 a gallon.

My mom had to travel yesterday and when she went by a station in the AM it was $2.69 and when she drove by 4 hours later it was $3.09.....this is bordering on price gouging.

ACK! It just went up again!!! it's $3.20 now :eek::rolleyes::eek:

[Lady's Human]

This is being brought on by speculation in the Gas market. Don't blame the gas station, blame wall street. Today's news story predicting $5/gallon gas is justification for tomorrow's commodities market hikes.

What is the gas website? I've heard of it but not sure where to find it. Thanks!

[elizabethann]

Well this is the one for NH. But I think you could find one for your part of town:

just saw my gas, it's in the same amount. I better hurry up.

jenbkr, I think there's another site.. (link removed) ..something. it'll shw you the cheapest gas around! excuse me but haven't seen that site for a long time so don't know what it'll really help with! :)

[davidpizzica]

Gas prices in Pittsburgh go from a "low" of $2.99 to a high od $3.19, with the average being $3.09. What gets me mad is at work we have a gas pump tp gas the equipment. The boss and his family can gas up their personal cars FOR NOTHNG!! However he won't give the employees the same privledge! GRRRR! maybe that's why he's boss!

[petslover]

its 3.11 here.. way to much.

[anna_66]

Look at some of these prices here...:eek: (scroll down to the second picture)
Gas prices from AOL (http://journals.aol.com/gaspricepics/GasPricePhotoBlog/)

[CathyBogart]

If I'm willing to wait in line it's $2.69, or $2.89 if I don't have time to wait in line.

[sandragonfly]

uhm, I see my link's not working (removed in case spam) - but I found this. you just type in the zip code & see the lowest/highest results -

find the lowest & highest in your cit(ies).. (http://www.fuelmeup.com/main.php)

the country of USA's average of gas price is $2.95 now.. :eek:

[manda_moo87]

It went up quite a bit here today, its now 116.9 Canadian... again not sure what this is in US $ but its well over $3 per gallon.

[slick]

It depends on part of the lower mainland you are in. Right now it's ranging from 104.9 to 116.9. Of course, that's the advertised price and it's always 3 or 4 cents cheaper at the pump.

Tonight on my way home from work I topped up at 103.9 ($38.00 for a half a tank....). It always goes up just before a long weekend so am anticipating it to sky rocket tomorrow.

[cyber-sibes]

NW Ohio- I filled up last Friday for $2.69/gal. Today it's up to $3.09. I still have some gas, but I think I may refill tomorrow...it'll probably be up to $4 by morning.:rolleyes:

[Logan]

We seem to be almost out of gas in this town today. :( Most stations/c-stores don't have any. There are a few that still have some but most of them are charging in excess of $3.399.

Logan :(

[wolfsoul]

123.9....And that's per LITRE! :( I used a converting website and it said that would be $32.7 a gallon, but I don't think that sounds right.

[slleipnir]

135 something p/L :eek: I can't believe it!! I can't afford to drive anymore:rolleyes:

[Uabassoon]

Today it went up to $2.95, thankfully I was able to gas up this morning at $2.88 before the prices went up again.

[K9karen]

I filled up tonight at $3.39 a gal. I'm staying close to home!

[zookeeperinaltha]

Had to get some today and it was 2.99:(

[Craftlady]

Northern Kentucky
$3.09 up from $2.95 or $2.99
These prices were as of yesterday (Thursday).

[chocolatepuppy]

I had to wait in line 10 minutes to get gas yesterday! And I had to wait because my gas light was on. :rolleyes: It was still $3.09. It put $25.00 in. I've never put that much in! It went just over half full. Thankfully, if I don't leave town, it will last two to three weeks.

[elizabethann]

It went just over half full.

Yikes! What kind of car do you drive?? That's alot of money for only filling a tank a little over 1/2 full. Just curious. You don't have to answer if you don't want. But, shoot! That's alot!

I filled my tank this morning at $3.09. It cost $29. I was almost on empty so I filled it all the way. I drive a Ford Focus Wagon.

I've noticed that people are driving slower on the highways. Probably trying to conserve as much gas as possible.

Oh well.

[wolfsoul]

Wow, I think you guys are lucky it only costs that much to fill your tank -- My roomate paid $50 yesterday to fill up her tiny car, it cost my boss $68 for her little Sprint, and Jynnelle's truck costs $100 to fill up.

[chocolatepuppy]

Yikes! What kind of car do you drive??

I drive a 2005 Ford Ranger. That's a little truck. Remember, the gas light was on so it was on empty. ;) My husband filled his truck, a 1999 Ranger up last week from near empty, it cost him $40.00! :eek:

[JenBKR]

There is 3.78 litres to a gallon. I drive a Honda civic and to fill it, I'm looking at approx $45-$50!!!!

[wolfsoul]

Originally posted by JenBKR

Thanks to 'new mom to a veiled,' I calculated that the price per gallon is 468.3 (so about $4.68) . :eek:

[Kfamr]

Last I looked (yesterday) it was $2.99. Probably higher now.
It really sucks because I work around 30 mins from home.

[cali]

here its up to $1.19 a liter today, I dont drive but my mom drives a van and works out of town so this hits her rather hard.

[gkristian]

it's a $1.31 a liter down here

[gemini9961]

Hehe, I don't know what that exchanges for US dollars, but it must not be cheap.

[king2005]

it went up to 1.50 downtown today!!! Thats insane!!! It was only .98 yesterday.

[puggywuggles41893]

Ive seen gas from $3.05-3.99!!:eek: Geez!

[flamepony12]

Gah, I saw the price go up on Pure unleaded from $3.19 to $3.23 in one day. o.O

[NoahsMommy]

I put $20.00 in my tank today...that filled it up a little over half way...I have an 11 gallon tank.

[Desert Arabian]

Gas by me in the Milwaukee area is running for $3.29. Insane. My poor dad has to pay around $100 to fill up his truck, give or take a few $$. I am about ready to pull out my bike- I can't afford gas anymore.

[davidpizzica]

As of yesterday in my area of Pittsburgh the cheapest was $3.15 and the most expensive was $3.27. The average was $3.19. I may buy a bicycle!
