Regular here is right around $2.65, give or take a few cents. Three days ago, $2.49. I can remember when gas was $.49 a gallon. I quit smoking (cigarettes, anyway, Winston Reds) when the cashier said "That'll be $1.03." I said "No way am I paying over a dollar for a pack of smokes." And I quit, right there.

Try to comfort yourselves by knowing that the US is still one of the cheapest places in the world (outside of the Middle East) to buy gasoline - or any other fuel for that matter. It's f*@!kin' ridiculous here!
Fortunately, thanks to recent changes in how I pass my days I now drive many, many fewer miles than I have in my whole adult life. |

At the price I paid today it works out at $7.96 a gallon - though our gallons are a bit bigger than yours.

Actually, US gallons (3.785 litres) are quite a bit smaller than I thought, ours are 4.546 litres so I only paid about $6.64 a gallon.
