Default GASSSS!!!!

I stopped at COSTCO yesterday to fill up my tank. A week ago, the price was $2.95 and this week, it was $3.17, that's $.22 per gallon more. I luckily used up 1/2 a tank of gas this week, but I paid $40.65 for 12.7 gallons of gas. This is ridiculous. Oil companies have no reason, or a real reason to boost their profit margins so damn high.

What is everyone else paying for gas?

I just filled up the other day for $2.86 a gallon and that was the cheap stuff. I was pretty low and it took 19 gallons to fill it. Cost me $55! [:@]They say that the national average is going to hit $4.00 for summer.

We're at $2.85 right now, but I'm thinking it's going to go up to $2.88 tomorrow...our local stations usually follow the turnpike service plaza's increase a day or so later.

I have been driving 400 miles per week to work....it sucked...got laid off today, though, so I'm going to be saving some money now. Anyone know of any PR/web design (not development) jobs?

You betcha...been there now for....oooooh....all of 6 months, I guess? Had been practically living there for a few years prior, and went to college a few miles west of the city. I almost moved to Middletown, but settled on Lebanon instead to be closer to friends.

On topic...Lebanon gas prices are some of the cheapest in Central PA, too....usually just a few cents more than Lancaster county, which has the cheapest I've seen around.

Yesterday I paid $2.79 per gallon at wawa here in bristol Pa. I do mostly all city driving. Last week I did the math and got 15.4 miles per gallon. I really hope dodge puts a diesel in the 2010 dakota. Diesel is $2.81 per gallon and thats down from $2.85 last week.
