This is more for the Americans... cause I know what the average gas prices are here in Canada. Right now, in my town, gas is $1.11 (CDN) a litre. That works out to $3.75 (US) a gallon.

Is it that expensive for you guys?

Isn't it terrible... when I got my license, about 10 years ago, I remember buying gas for 49-55 cents a litre. My how things change. Cigarettes were also about $5 a pack, and now they're at least $11.

I'm only 25, and I can already talk about how cheap things were when I was young! lol

Geesh!

Around $2.76 here in Southern Iowa last time I filled up.

OK, I'm going to go off and convert this now. Currently in metropolitan Melbourne, Australia, its hovering at the $1.39 per litre mark.

OK, so $1.39 Aussie dollars is $1.05 US dollars.

There's 3.75 litres in a gallon, so we're paying almost $4 US dollars per gallon here.

Its a shocker, we run two new big cars (cars are more pricey in Australian than the US too), we need to as we live in a pretty outer burb 40kms from the city, and as its a new large suburb its pretty spread out, so I do a lot of mileage without even leaving the area, let alone all the stuff I do in and around Melbourne. Doug works just outside of the city in an area pretty difficult to access by public transport from here, plus both our cars are salary packaged for tax reasons. We easily do 25,000 kms per year each, so yep, we spend about $200 Australian dollars a week on petrol.

We have no mortgage as our house was so cheap but inside the next 18 months, for a variety of reasons we're going to take on a humungously big mortgage, move about 25kms closer in to the city and ditch one car.

I am in South Texas and gas in $2.79 a gallon right now. It is outrageous how much it costs to fill my car up!

IN Michigan I would average out the price to be $2.83 today. Here is a super website to find the cheapest gas prices near where you live or work. My closest station was actually the cheapest for me at $2.74.

OMG- I looked again today & they went up a whole .10 Again!

Paid $2.85 a gallon yesterday in New Jersey. I remember being in upper pennisula Michigan with my grandfaher and the Bay station was .59/gallon and he complained about the rising prices. Talk about feeling old.

I live in California and just paid $3.53. Ouch.

We paid $2.86 near Tampa Florida yesterday, but saw it for $3.11 when we were out in Tampa.

I'm in the south burbs of Chicago and it is $2.99 for regular. We are getting ready to move to the western burbs and it has been .10 cheeper a gallon everytime we have looked in that area. I was in Chicago a few weeks ago and regular was $3.15 a gallon, I'm not sure what is it now but I am sure it has gone up. My husband commutes to work and he is looking at hybird (sp?) cars or looking to pick up a cheap motorcycle to save on fuel. ~Mandy

I live in North Dakota and Mid-grade gas is 2.98 a gallon.

$2.89 here in Texas by me!

We are at $3.05 in Washington ~ :think

$2.89 as of yesterday but you know they change the prices like they change their underware so its prob $3.00 today LOL. Oh thats in NJ, Bergen County.

NY which is right over the border is $3.25+

Sickening is right. Guess I won't be traveling alot this summer.

Here on Long Island a "bargain" price for regular gas is $3.09. Unfortunately the cars we have don't take regular but Super ($3.15) and Plus ($3.27)

3.23 here in vegas, I have a Average size car , ( not a compact and not a s SUV) and it cost me 42 bucks to put gas in my car last week, I almost threw up.

My DH swears its a ploy of the oil companys to make the bench mark 3.00 us dollars a gallen , so that when we see it for 2.90 we run to the pump!! how sad. I drive alot and think about a hybrid but as of now they are too small or too expensive.

so we will see.

$2.83 a gallon for 10% ethanol grade

$2.87 a gallon for reg. unleaded

$1.90 a gallon for E-85

It takes about $40 to fill up my PT Cruiser here in S.E. South Dakota.
