Your Gas Price

[BOZ]

sounds like we can expect it to go up in the next week or so due to the hurricane...

Out of curiosity: How much did you pay for gas the last time you filled up? $2.79 here.

~$2.65

I will sneak gasoline across state lines and re-sell it to you for $2.70. This will be the foundation of my fortune!!!!!

About $2.65/Gallon (US) here.

 

[RithTheAwakener]

currently at $2.90.
damned hurricane raising prices even higher.

 

[nerfherder]

$6.12/gallon (US)

$2.499 last Friday, which came out to $55.00 for 22 gallons. Ouch!!!

$6.12/gallon (US)

Wah!! I will no longer complain about paying $2.65 here!!! Sheesh, just imagine if we all lived in the UK, and our wages would probably be lower too, plus the enormously higher taxes...

$2.79 for "regular" here in suburban Chicago last night; I filled the tank pre-emptively, figuring it'd be jumping today or tomorrow.

Yeah, we might actually stop driving enormous SUVs to work by ourselves...

If you all lived over here it would certainly be more crowded!

But, bear in mind that cars tend to be more economical and we don't tend to drive so far (it's only a little island so there's only so far you can drive before you end up in the sea!).

Also, wages and taxes are pretty comparable with the US once you take into account the health service (which we pay as a tax, but you pay as insurance).

Actually, the price of gas seems to make little difference in this regard. SUV (or "Chelsea tractors" as they're known here, since most are driven in cities) are getting more and more popular.
