5. Colorado went up another 15 cents last night..
Edited on Fri Mar-04-11 06:36 PM by walldude
I paid 3.32 today and that was at Costco... If prices hold that adds about $100 a month to my budget. You think I'll get a raise?

10. It is pretty sad when the Indiana turnpike is cheaper than Chicago
I always make it a point to fill on the turnpike so I don't have to in Chicago area. From Cleveland I can make it to Chicago easy enough but not to Iowa.

8. It was $3.49 today here in western PA.
I paid $3.19 just 12 days ago.

In the meantime, Pittsburgh Port Authority announced a 15% cut in public transportation which takes effect later this month.

17. Get this... I got a dollar off per gallon and still payed...
$2.49... Fuel Perks!

That's a dollar more per gallon from when "W" came into office.

And, the line was big because we get "perks" from buying over-priced groceries in Giant Eagle.

Everybody feels like a fucking fool idling up to the pumps. Then, I realize that I COULD buy a more fuel efficient car, but that I cannot AFFORD to do any of that now.

How many billions did they make in the profits from this forced change, unfounded, due to reserves and moreover due to better technology that is shelved.

Fucking fuel perks, jokers....

25. And when regular gas is that much take a look at the diesel which
is used to haul our food and commodities around. That is why our food is going up. That and the fact that those farmers use fuel to grow the crops we eat.
