    It's pretty much holding at 3.33 here at least until Memorial Day, then it will begin to sky rocket.

    Same here in southwest Utah at a Conoco station. Other brands are higher. I'm glad to have my gas costs half what they were last year before I replaced my Camry with my Prius.

    I just filled up for $3.50/ cost over $30 to fill up my prius and since I don't drive much it'll last about 3 weeks. Imagine a 30 gallon tank @3.50/. Lucky us.

    Actually, I am...that was actually a nice chuckle.

    Technically, saving bandwidth can save us money in the long run. Eventually, all of our Internet Providers have to improve their equipment to handle the higher load, and the expense gets passed along to us.

    But I like the bumper sticker idea!

    There used to be a "sticky" message in the Main Forum that linked to a color map of US gas prices by state. That seems to be gone now.

    But I've found the site to check:

    http://www.gasbuddy.com/gb_gastemperaturemap.aspx

    Here in Cambria, regular gas is $3.75 per gallon.

    Gas price here in W. Michigan today was at 3.25 for regular, the highest price here in the state. Guess its a good thing i filled at 2.92 at the start of the week at $22.

    Small world, priussoris! The Olallieberry Inn is a wonderful B&B here in town, but, since we live here, we don't stay there! But they have a super breakfast that locals can join at a good price on weekdays.

    Gas just bumped to $3.89 here.

    We're at $1.27 per litre up here in Canada, which works out to $4.25usd per gallon. We have a lot more tax here though, as well as a tax to subsidize transit. My FIL lives near the border, and always fills up in the US. They say it could hit $1.40 by summer. I guess it's almost time for me to get a Prius, I'm just holding out for the newer model, since I'll be better able to afford it by then.

    Darken, I have to admit that in the next town (20 miles south), gasoline prices are at least 30c cheaper. We have only three gas stations, and most locals try to avoid buying fuel here in Cambria.

    Of course, I suspect we get a bad rap from the tourists because of the oil companies.
