Default I just filled up on gas!

There is no way I can afford over $4/gallon working from home as I do, full time. My BIL's gas is over $5 in Florida and I'm just really hoping that ours doesnt go up that much. But just in case, $49 just went down the toilet in gas for my car.
When will this ever end? I'm so sick of it!

Thank goodness I filled up last night for 3.47/gallon. The SAME gas station is now at 4.09 (at 10pm) I'm sure it'll be even higher in the am. The news lady here said though prices will be back to "normal" whatever that is..mid week next week for us to not worry..but still the gouging is annoying. It's going on bad here

I absolutely HATE the gas prices. I drive a Jeep Grand Cherokee and it is a V8 and i get HORRIBLE HORRIBLE gas mileage...

Yeah it's crazy here. Up .60 in less than 24hrs so far. I'm sure it will get far worse too. Going to be conserving as much as possible this week.

Yep, I drive a Ford Expedition...talk about BAD mileage Thankfully I don't drive it that often and when I do it is pretty short trips so a full tank will last me over 2 weeks sometimes longer!!!! I am certain it the hurricane causing this and I hope it does go back down but I have 1/2 a tank so I am good for a while!!!!

Gas here where I live went down almost 10 units since last month because the world prices have been going down. But it still isnt enough. It needs to go down 10 units or more so people can really afford to take their cars out again
