Oregon and New Jersey require that professionals fill your tank, you are forbidden by law to do it yourself.
Professionals? Do they have to take a test to get licensed, or is a degree required?

I was wondering that, too. Can I ask for references before I let them fill my tank?

$3.66/gal for regular. I saw that diesel is over $4/gallon now. Gas is up a few cents over last week.

I never did understand why you couldnt pump your own gas in New Jersey. The price of the gas was the same as everywhere else when I was in NJ, which i found weird. If people all over the world pump their own gas, what would make lawmakers in NJ forbid people to pump their own gas?? Any Jersey folks here??

Today, we filled Rudy at $3.69 a gallon, at Shell.

There was a truck at the next pump that had $70 racked up!

This week it went up about as fast as I have seen it. Prices around here are anything from $3.31 to $3.45 today. A week ago nothing was over $3.29.
