Depending on how many people buy Mid Grade or Premium, the national average price paid for all gas grades could have already passed $4.

Sorry for not seeing this before - yes, I am referring to the price of Regular Unleaded. We all know that if you have a Prius you need to only be putting Regular in it...

Looks like it's gonna miss the heavy-betting days by just a handful of days.

Looks like we'll be ready for the $5 a gallon contest in a few weeks.

my guess is wednesday, june 11th

Quite a few chose 7 June, and with yesterday's crude oil increase, I think they are the 'winners'. So to speak.

BINGO! (I lose)

Gasbuddy says the national average is $4.023 today, Saturday, June 7, 2008.

Bummer. I picked my parents' anniversary, June 12.

Missed it by THAT much.

Just watching Headline News... AAA reports gas went up 2¢ overnight, so we're paying an average of $4.00 a gallon, and yes, prices on GasBuddy.com show prices are at $4.029 this morning (I am Alex9990 on the local Jacksonville, FL GasBuddy site).

I also lost since I bet it would be May 30th and I was too early though I was hoping it would spike to $4.00 on that day.
