Since the prices in the above article are in pounds I've included a link to a currency conversion page.

The prices are only gonna get worse everywhere.

Last time I filled up, I paid over $40. My car is pretty fuel efficient, but it only takes premium... $3.839/gal.

My husband, who just HAD to get an SUV , just paid $50 to fill it up with the cheap stuff. "Cheap stuff" my ass.

We do have it better than much of the developed world, but still... damn.

In my two door car, I had to fill up the tank at $3.50/gal (premium gas). The total was $50.00
