    I filled up today for $2.39! Woohoo! It seems to range from $2.59 to $2.39 in this area. I actually saw one place today at $2.69, but it was a full service place! I didn't even think those existed anymore!

    I *heard* that it's $2.42 here! I wouldn't know...since I don't have a car up here I lost all interest in how much gas is But yep, it'll go down just to tease everybody and it'll jump right back up there in time for the holidays!

    Heh, yep. In Oregon, you're not allowed to pump your own gas.

    I hear it is that way in New Jersey also. My ex- SIL moved to Indiana from NJ and we had to teach her how to pump her own gas!

    It is sad that there are so few full serve here/. I work with seniors, and many ladies (widows) have no idea how to fill their own tank, so they stop driving. AND to make it worse, the few stations that ARE full service increase their prices considerably, making it hard to afford on a fixed income.

    I live in New Jersey and you can pump your own if you want to, but most people prefer to be waited on. Consequently I have never needed to know how. Now that my daughter lives in Maryland and I visit often I have a dilemma. There it is *pump your own* and I don't know how. I just make sure I fill up before I leave NJ! LOL!

    Thats so funny! When Alden and I traveled to New Hampshire and Mass. last year we were so shocked to have someone pump our gas for us..lol. It was very strange. The first time it happened was so crazy! This not so nice looking man came walking over to our car and he made me very nervous...lol...we were wondering what the heck he wanted at first...LOL. The second time was a cute little girl and again it took us a second to realize she was there to pump our gas. It was just too funny! Then of course we were wondering if we were suppose to tip them. Are you? There are no full service stations around here or in any surrounding areas that I know of. I have been pumping my own gas ever since I started driving.
