Holy Cow! Gas prices are skyrocketing!

AAA says the average price of a gallon of gas in the US went up 6 cents today. Sure wish that was all it was here, more than 50 cents overnight just isn't fair.

It went up to 5.49 last night, BUT today it is 3.99-4.52 again

We filled up in Virginia Beach yesterday for $3.49.

Well, knock wood, we don't seem to be having a huge problem here in NJ. Yesterday it was $3.21, I just looked on-line and it was $3.45. A big jump, but I am not hearing about any shortages nor long lines.

I gassed up on Friday due to a request from my mum to do so. A trip that normally takes me 5 minutes took 45! Long lines and people blocking the entrance of the gas stations while trying to get in... resulting in those ready to leave being stuck. A few gas stations ran out of gas and one had to call the police because of a fight. Who knew such entertainment could break out in this small town in the middle of nowhere!
I filled up for $3.85, if I remember right. A 40 cent jump from the day before.

Gas has only gone up 10 cents or so, depending on the station. There are some where it didn't budge, others where it went up 20c. I think we get our gas from New Jersey refineries, which may cushion some of the blow.

The gas stations that have gas near me are at $4.99!

I can't believe the rep from Pilot Co. was on acting like this is not price gouging! There are a few station in Knoxville charging $5.09 as of yesterday.

At these prices it costs me $20 a trip just to go check on my Dad.
