    $8.87???? Yikes - if I had to pay that I wouldn't be able to afford to drive.

    We couldn't either if it weren't for the fact we use GPL. GPL runs us a gallon about the same as regular gas in the US. Thank heavens for us deciding on getting that integrated when we purchased the car 4 years ago.

    It's going up again around here and I'm not sure why. $3.89 in Cook County - ugh! That was at the Shell station right near me, which always seems to be priced the highest. But I got it at the Mobil by my church (in DuPage County) after choir for $3.59, much better.

    Went up 20 cents per gallon overnight. I paid $3.89 yesterday, and when I passed the same filling station on my way home from work today, it was at $4.09.

    I paid $4.03 yesterday and that was at Costco which is supposed to be cheaper than other places.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Wow, it's funny - one of the regular stations I buy at is pretty stable - when all the others kept fluctuating (it can vary by as much as 30¢ from one station to another) I was surprised the other day when it went up two cents to $3.57 a gallon, it had been at $3.55 for weeks!

    Hurray! $2.99 in DuPage County on my way home from work! Fill 'er up! The Shell station close to my church (also in DuPage County) was at $3.18 when I was coming home from choir. But under three bucks, that's sweet. Whatever I can save on gas goes in the Christmas fund.
