I was wondering the same thing. They were $3.75 on the way to work yesterday and $3.84 on the way home. :(. I don't like it.

Are we ever going to see the prices drop down to a dollar or less anymore. Those were the good old days!

Gas prices in our town went up 70 cents/gallon in two weeks. Its disturbing especially for commuters.

I think it is awful that oil companies (not the gas stations) are making record profits.  :bs: Lower the profits a little bit and pass it on to the consumer at the pump. The gas station owners are taking the brunt of this and they are not at fault, it is the "top dogs", the oil companies.

I think with the weather around New England has made it so the gas stations in this area is raising the prices.  I think they know that people are needing the gas for the equipment that they are using.  I am finding that I am doing less and I am tring to combine the different things that I need to do so that I don't use as much gas.  Also I find that we are not going as much as we were before all the increases in the gas.

It always seems that the things we need the most cost the most. No one can get anywhere without gas in their cars, don't even think of the price of food these days.

Yep! Here we go again! It seems it gets to where it is somewhat manageable cost for gas and it starts to climb again. I believe unless we get a energy plan in place and start drilling for more oil, we will be strapped with the cost we have. Don't just talk about an energy plan that does not work for transportation (wind and solar). This maybe fine for home heating and electricity for homes and business but, does nothing for gas prices. The technology is not there yet to transfer all vehicles off gasoline or diesel fuel, lets just realize that fact and bring up the supply or even be independent from the Oil sheeks!!

2 WEEKS AGO on Friday to Saturday morning they went up in Southern California 7 cents.  Then since it has been about a penny a day.   $4.25 for regular.
