    S.E. Michigan - up to $4.15 this afternoon.

    We bought a new car last week - Ford Fusion. Sticker said average for in-town is 20/mpg and 28 on the highway.

    We went down to Findlay, Ohio for the Pet Talk gathering on Sunday. About 230 miles round trip. We got 35 MPH - needless to say, I am very happy. That's about 15 miles more to the gallon than with our old Explorer.

    I guess we are not having it as tough as the Brits, i heard today they are paying about 3.15 a litre, and it takes a truckie to fill up his truck 160 pounds day, they had a huge protest, good on them,along with the canadians we are still having to pay more, we worked it out the US is paying around 1.25 litre and we are paying 2.09, so i guess gas is still relatively cheap in the US, but yes we are all feeling the pinch that's for sure.

    Jumped up to $3.90 today. DEPRESSING, went up over a dollar in less than a month here!!!!!

    Lucky I got "lost" taking back roads home from school to try to get around traffic (ended up adding an HOUR on to my trip... never again!) and passed by a gas station selling gas $0.20 cheaper so maybe getting lost wasn't completely in vain, I filled up, of course!!

    As of today our gas hit 5.18 a gallon. It costs us about $110.00 for a fill up.We usually fill up 2X per week. People say it will keep climbing throughout the summer, hope not but I guess we have no control over this.

    We do, we really do, its just not enough people are pro-active enough to make a change... And no, boycotting a gas station for one day is NOT going to make a difference because we have to fill up eventually!

    Up for $4.25 for self-serve unleaded here in San Francisco. Cost me almost $40 to fill up my little commute-mobile - I remember when I could fill her up for less than $10

    Depressing is right. Even milk went up $.50 a gallon. Just trying to keep up in gas, milk and cat food is a real challenge these days.

    The gas station closest to me is now $3.99 for regular although some others are still a little less. The last time I bought milk it was $3.99 for a gallon. How about that - milk and gas at the same price! Who woulda thunk!

    Gas prices here in Pittsburgh are on the verge of hitting the $4.00 mark in another day or so. Most stations are at the $3.97-$3.99 level now. I'm lucky in that I found a station at "only" $3.93! (for right now).

    Monday June 2 (Japan is t'other side of the Date Line)

    Gas has risen from 10 - 12 yen per litre. It's now $6.25 US per gallon.

    They have to import ALL their fuel.

    I wasn't quite down to half a tank but I decided to fill up again and I paid $4.16 per gallon. It took a little over $23 to fill my tank up. I'm just glad that I don't have a long commute, don't drive many far distances, and get good gas mileage.
