Gas prices

[franlee46]

Is the price of gas hurting anyone else?

It certainly has affected me and I do not drive very much as I am retired but if I want to go any where visiting neighbor or friends I have to think twice about it as I do watch my grandsons 2 days a week and lately I have had to ask my daughter for gas money What is this all coming to lines and odd and even days to fill up  Crazy Crazy Public transportation seems to becoming a better option

Of course the price of gas hurts everyone. It raises the price of almost everything.

Gas prices is always a way to control people. Keep prices high on food, gas and everything else so no one can get ahead! its a politicians game to control the peope. Think about it.. if we dont have the money to organize, and afraid we cant pay bills or food, then how would we ever think about marching on washington to tell them we had enough?

I have a Prius so my car is really easy on gasoline.  And on my wallet, lol.

Gas prices are crazy i remember 1.97 man that was wonderful ... man cant the world gov. step in and set a base price witch  changes every year or two. come on the now!!

I saw today that gas was at $3.25! It's getting ridiculous....the government really should do something...the higher the gas prices climb, the worse our economy gets because no one wants to spend money on anything extraneous when they have to worry about being able to put gas in the car just to get to work. I think that fixing gas prices could boost our economy immensely. Just ask yourself- if it only cost $20 to fill up your car each week, what would you do with that extra money? Go to the movies? Buy your kids new clothes? Go visit family? Seriously....why don't they think of that? Bunch of morons!

Gas price here jumped 30 cents over night, I will start doing more errands on the way to work and stopping and budy cold things on my way home,  Even adding the berrymens is not helping now.

It feels like the Carter years all over again but worse!  It's very sad and scary.  I had sincerely hoped to never experience such times again.

Yes the gas prices have definitely hurt our budget at home.  With the hint of any kind of trouble in the oil rich middle east, the gas companies jump all over the opportunity to raise the prices.  You can bet your bottom dollar that the oil companies will have banner profits at the end of the first quater of 2011.

Right now its ok, but if we get to the $5.00 plus prices again I don't think I can handle it.

Not terribly, but I have a five mile commute on most days.  However, when I do my extra gigs, it is killing me.  I actually ran out of gas on the highway the other night.  Trying to squeeze the last bit before I refilled.   Not the brightest move, but hilarious!

I dont have to do alot of driving thank goodness, because $3 a gallon is killing my checkbook.  I am hoping it will go back down to mid $2 by summer.

With the way gas prices are going we are all going to be walking or riding a bike.  I had to pay 3.59 a gallon yesterday for gas.  I am starting to look into other ways to get discounts on the gas.  They are saying that the price of gas will be up to 5.00 a gallon by summer.  I told my son the other day that he better getting his walking shoes on.
