How are the Gas Prices Where You Are?  

It affects so many areas of our everyday lives. I mean, we drive almost everywhere we go and it is also causing food prices to go up because of the high cost of shipping.

Yeah, the high fuel prices are driving me crazy. I think it is due to our economy being in horrible shape. It is also due to the war in the middle east. I do not think I like this at all. But I think I will still manage.

I don't understand the huge gap either.

I went to Roanoke a couple of weeks ago, which is about 30 miles from where I live and the gas prices there were like 10 cents cheaper than where I live.

Doesn't make much sense.

I agree! It is horrible and terrible! It is so hard on just about everybody!

Oh my gosh! So it is already over $4 there! That is awful!

I believe everyone needs a vacation/getaway every year...esp those who work hard. So many people will not be able to do that until something happens with the prices!

Luckily, I don't need premium gas, but I can see it being $4 for regular by Memorial day. But, when I went out today, it has only gone up about 2 cents since I got gas last week, so hopefully it's starting to slow down.

My favorite town in the desert that I drove to frequently has hit $4.19 a gallon! They are always higher than everyone else. I rarely get gas there because I can usually get there and home on less than a tank of gas. And, while I am there, I usually walk around or ride my bike. But, I feel sorry for people who are living there full-time.

Our prices here are going up everyday. I wouldn't be surprised if I see it way over 3.50 tomorrow morning!

Yes it is a big concern.

There are some small town/rural areas here where people live and they have to drive a big distance just to get to the store.

I really feel for those who have to drive a long way to work!

I was thinking a while back about getting an SUV because my boyfriend would like me to drive something bigger than I do (I drive a Nissan Sentra), but I can't afford to do that right now! My car is pretty good on gas for right now anyway!

Yes it is affecting everything! The cost of groceries is going up!

I hope and pray something is done before it gets completely out of hand and I'm not so sure it's not that way now!

Amen!

Maybe if everyone can remember what deisel is to gas. Maybe we can get it back lower, like the way that it was!

Yes, it is unbelieveable!

I wish I could strike oil and have my own company! I would only charge like $1 a gallon!

Someone told me this past weekend that there are places in Alaska for oil. Why not get more oil from this country? I don't understand how all this works.

Think about it. If we use up every-ones resources before we open ours. That would just make us more powerful than anyone else. The united states is just acting like we don't have the resources, When we do. it does not matter in the long run anyway. Unless we find more alternatives to gasoline. Sooner or later we will all run out.

3.89 for regular is cheap yet as we are getting 1 gallon for 6$ and premium is around 7$ but here diesel is cheap 2 litres in 1$ but now we are coverting into CNG thats cheap and in 280 pakistani rupees we get arond 20 litre full that makes it around 5$ cause we have our own CH3 (Methane) in Sui (it has got a lot of wells of CH3 and acording to report it has the capability to prouce it more than 200 years continously) so its cheaper but oil and other petroleum we have but cant bring them out due to urs USA policies.
