Okay gang, time to gas up all your vehicles, lawn mowers, etc.
If you haven't done it yet, today's the day to do it.

1. I know. I'm scared to look at the prices by the time I get a chance
to get out there (later today).

10. I filled up at a QuikTrip today for $2.57 a gallon.
I'm up in Woodstock in Cherokee County. Seems the prices are less here than in Marietta or Atlanta.

12. Just found $2.52 in Norcross
I topped the tank off and filled up an extra 3 gal can. I've got 10 extra gallons in the garage just in case we need it. If not, I'll have plenty for the lawn mower.

3. I agree. I was after my honey last night.
He tends to be lackadaisical about such things. I told him to get his butt out there and fill all the vehicles!

4. This afternoon when LD gets paid we'll fill up
That should give gas prices a chance to stabilize a bit before we have to refill the tank again in about two weeks.

6. I topped off on the way to work
and I may top off on the way home. Thank goodness it hasn't rained in a month so my 2 acres haven't needed mowing much lately.

7. Prices already up over thirty cents per gallon this morning in N.C.
My husband went out this morning and said there was no gas selling anywhere less than $3 per gallon although yesterday most stations were around $2.60 to $2.70.

9. Just did it a little while ago.
Prices haven't gone up yet. Average for regular is $2.54 to $2.59. Of course, that's here in Georgia where the governor rescinded the gas tax until the end of Sept.
