Just filled tonight, 2.88. Lets see how Rita kills those prices

Posted by: rescuediver

Gas prices are holding steady at around $2.89 for 87 octane. Diesel has dropped over .20 cents in the last 2 weeksYesterday I paid $2.89 for diesel #2.

i am lucky i guess i got 22 miles to drive one way to work every day and well my dad got a job at the same place i work so we take his lil car (1990 geo metro) and then we take turns paying for gas well it takes about 5 gallons a week. it gets about 45 miles per gallon has a lil 5 speed in it. it is a heck of alot cheaper then driving my truck every day and that thing gets between 18-20 mpg.

Thanks RITA!!! Gas is supposed to hit 5$ a gallon here in NY in the next few days. also all food made with soybeans is supposed to skyrocket along with cloths price..... any commentS?

I was stuck in stop-and-go traffic today. Maybe if gas hits $5 a gallon, some of these people will stay home and I can drive over 10mph on the freeway.

Yeah, I know that's wishful thinking.

one day when i was at school it went up like 30 cents and we were at 3 bucks for awhile

Posted by: cr125predator

over 3 bucks here. People on the news said it is going to go up to at least 5 dollars. Bye Bye quad trip.

Posted by: cr125predator

i sure hope your right


Posted by: cr125predator

Well 5 somolians or 3, its taking its toll on us. We spent almost 900 bucks last month on gas alone. It is rediculas!!

$2.85 here on the left coast, but that's on base.

So far I have not allowed the price of fuel to affect my life style. I only drive 20 miles to work, so thats a plus. Some guys I work with drive over 50 miles each way. Of course, if I lived where they live I could have bought a much bigger house, but now I would be spending money on gas, wear and tear on my vehicle & etc instead of putting it into equity.

2.68 here. and it has been around this for a while.

They said that when Katrina hit. I try not to believe the "spin" that the media places on things. 2.55 here.
