Think about it!?!
yeah, but the difference is i can say..i am kind of broke this week, i can go without a coke... i can't say i'm kind of broke this week, i guess i just won't put gas in my car so i can get to work

Is the price going up because of the 'possibility of war'? At least that is what I am guessing.. It usually only goes up really high during the summer months

The lowest I've seen it around here (except for the cash-only station) is $1.57/gallon.

When I started to commute at the beginning of the semester, gas was $1.35/gallon. This really sucks, because I drive about 170 miles a day to and from school. Thankfully, my car gets pretty good gas mileage (about 26 mpg highway).

Update

My friends and I went to lunch in Half Moon Bay (a little beach town south of SF), and regular unleaded was $2.19 a gallon!!!

Good thing I didn't need gas!

It's around $1.53 where I live right now, which is better than what it has been. I went to see my boyfriend this weekend and even though he lives about 2.5 hours away, there was a huge difference in gas prices--it's almost 20 cents higher up there! Maybe it is a good thing that I won't be making any more road trips this semester...

Yes, whoever said that gas in Britain costs around 5 pounds a gallon is right. I know the price won't go down any before I move there (in May!), but I won't be having a car--the Ulsterbus is good enough for me!

Right now gas around me is about $1.66-1.76. They say it might start to go down since winter is nearing it's end and we won't be using as much gas/oil for heat.
