    The lowest price that I've seen it is $3.37 for regular. Most places are at least in the $3.40's, 50's, or even 60's. Gas is always so much more expensive in CA than in the other states in the United States.

    The governor of the State of Connecticut has proposed to the Legislation that the $.25 PER GALLON gas tax be temporarily suspended from Memorial Day until Labor Day to give the folks in the state a break. I don't know why they can't just lower the gas tax permanently or scrap the tax altogether.

    It's $3.19 a gallon in Cincinnati.
    Here is Northern Kentucky (1/2 hour away from Cincinnati Ohio) it's $2.94 on cheap gas Tuesday with regular price $3.09 and will probably go up again by the weekend. Peeves me off that Exxon this last quarter made a zillion dollar profit.

    Regular unleaded YESTERDAY was $3.19 per gallon.

    Regular unleaded TODAY is $3.39 per gallon.

    Now explain to me, ANYONE, why there can be such a huge jump overnight? I don't get it! I am no economist, but it just doesn't seem like this is feasible, and yet it seems to happen every week or so here. I have found that the prices usually tend to go up on Thursdays, just before the weekend.

    I had gotten an email (chain) encouraging people to NOT fill up today to "stick it to the gas people" but a local economist said that won't work because people will just fill up either yesterday or tomorrow. He also said that the prices are somewhat based on supply and demand. So I guess I need to buy a bike and ride that to work.... or use the local bus system. Seems to me like the prices I pay for gas could actually be higher than what I pay for my car insurance!

    Yeah, gas prices totally suck right now. I put gas in over the weekend, and it was $3.65/gallon for the "cheap" stuff. *sigh*

    It is so unfair to charge so much for gas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Our government doesn't care that they are making a huge profit off the people they are suppose to serve.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!In So. California we are paying for regular $3.39. That is all I can afford. Not supreme for me!!!!
