If you pay attention to the gas price shown on the side of gas station, it is steadily increase day by day. There was rumor that, due to the tight situation in Iran, the gas price will go up to $4.25 per gallon sooner or later. When it comes to summer time, it might be over $5.00 per gallon. That just worry me, because I will have to pay more $15 extra more if I want to fill up the whole tank. So, and my work place might take up to 45 minutes drive in one way. Gosh, I might either look for another gas - economic car, or something else.

I find this troublesome too. Between gas going up and food prices going up, we're really starting to feel pressure because well, we need these things to survive and to keep working, but it's just hard to find the money.

Yes the gas price is rising and it will not stop. It will put a cramp in lots of summer vacations as well as just basic traveling in general. Prices for groceries and goods will sky rocket along with the price of the gas. My hubby is looking at buying a used motorcycle from our neighbor to ride during the summer months. I think most Americans are going to feel the pinch!

I hate the idea of gas prices going up. Randy and I are taking a weekend trip at the end of March and are really hoping that we do not have to rent a car to do so. Our car is over 15 years old and every few days she ends up losing fluid. Neither one of us is working right now so we cannot afford a car. The only reason why we are taking the trip is because it is a college graduation gift (I will have my Masters in April). I hope that gas prices will go down soon.

the gas price doesn't worry me that much for me because i don't have a car my best bet to you is save the gas for important needs in your car and walk to close places or take the bus every once in a while but for grocery shopping or other important needs use the car. that way you will save money for buying gas when you need it and not be using the car for close places that just burn gas.
