$2.05 on Saturday. Highest I've paid since I was in Illinois and Arkansas in February and in Colorado in January.
|
$2.21 a gallon...that really adds up with 60 miles worth of commuting a day!!!
|
Up to $2.35 today.. auuugh! I have a co-worker who is commuting 100 miles a day. He may not be making enough money to keep working at this rate.
There was some talk by the Michigan legislature of a bill that would eliminate the state gas tax if the average cost went up to $2.30, but I haven't heard if it passed. Time to go look that one up! |
I haven't been to the pump in a week, but someone told me today it was at $2.50. :eek: what the hell? I need to drive accross the state and go house hunting this weekend, but I'm on empty and I really can't afford these prices as a student! I swear, a week ago, it was $2.28, I don't know what happened.
|
I filled up for $0.999/litre the other day, but it has now gone up to $1.04/litre :eek:. Thank god I drive a Honda Civic is all I can say.

Apparently I'd heard the story wrong and what they were proposing was to cap the sales tax at the rate it would be once gas hit $2.30 a gallon. We'd still be paying the other 45 cents a gallon in gas taxes plus 6% sales tax on the first $2.30 per gallon. However, it was fought because Michigan's economy is in the pisser and they need the added tax revenue. <sigh> It was a nice thought.

I pay $37 for my Mountaineer when I'm near empty. This sucks. OH! Marathon on Northline between Fort and Dix always has the cheapest. Unfortunately I have a BP card so I'm stuck paying 2.22 right now, but Marathon's this morning was 2.17. There were two gas stations in Westland that were battling each other and got down to like 1.9something yesterday. Too bad no one Downriver is smart enough to do that. Don't these gas stations realize that if they sold it cheaper than everyone else, they'd get more business and gather more revenue and probably make out about the same? |
It's up to $2.50 a gallon here... and I just got a new full time job that has an hour commute. :( (Total... not one way.)

Right now gas around here is at about $2.19 a gallon. This isn't cute at all. |
The station nearest my house is $2.18. I sure am glad I don't have to drive too far to work.
|
It is around $2.35 near me. It's up to $2.65 in some parts of Chicago. And this is before May 1, when stations have to start selling the summer blend...that usually kicks prices up. People are predicting $3/gallon and more this summer. :eek: :eek:
Thank goodness I take public transportation to work...that's all I have to say. |
Oh, Lordy, gasoline was up to $2.34 the other day. My mom came home this afternoon and announced that it was $2.17, so we all got excited. This is insanity! I'm glad I only work .7 miles from my apartment...that means I can walk if I have to.
