It pulls more money out of your pocket and people that were barely getting by are feeling the pinch.
And you get off on that?

Not quite as much as internet porn, but yes.
Porn I get, you re a strange dude

What happened to Swampass Dan? Remedied by the joys of modern medicine, or from just getting the hell out of Texas?

I miss the days when I could fill the tank up for $10- $12.

Yeah, this $55 a tank crap just isn't fun anymore. :evil:

Just saw 4.25 (for regular)in Des Plaines, IL... that's just outside Chicago limits. Grr. :evil:

With my fuzzy math, I think that equates to 4.62 a gallon, about the same as a few areas of Los Angeles.

Where the fuck in Des Plaines were you? All along Touhy I saw $4.16-ish, back in Park Ridge its $4.06. Are you sure you weren't seeing the sign at the one that burned down on Oakton? :wink:

Yup. For my Mustang (the last time I actually FILLED it) it was about $48- $50. Such BULLSHIT....not to mention a drain on the wallet. :evil:

By the fountain. But there's 4000 hotels over there, so I'm sure that's why.

Thanks for the trouble of trying to figure that out Fella, I had not the first clue.
I don't do math. :lol:

Me either.
But over here all I know is that a journey which used to cost £20 now costs almost £40.
But this is 'rip-off' Britain, after all. So it's no surprise.

If i convert to dollars - a tank fill-up costs $140! But, our economy is seriously fucked and we pay far too much tax. Regardless of which idiots are in power.......

We are down to $3.79.....an unnamed place in Mass....... :wink:

In addition to the car wash bait, I found another one.
I passed a Citgo station this morning that said " 4.10 / 4.15 "

4.10 followed by smmmallll type that said "cash".

Mofos. :evil:

Maybe this has been going on and I just didn't notice until now. Honestly, I stopped rading the signs and looking for the best deals, especially in the city. You're kind of screwed no matter where you go, so I gave up the petrol comparison shopping. :evil:

by **Rhiannon** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 11:46 pm

$3.96 on my commute home. Not that it really makes a damn. The recent $0.20 drop for a 20 gallon tank is only $4.00. (Woo hoo...

)

by **Behshad** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 11:53 pm

last nite my wife filled her car at $3.52 ! :!:

Today it was back up to $3.73

by **G.I.Jim** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 11:55 pm

I saw $3.42 at a gas station here in S.C. this morning on my way to work. There was a damn line from hell with people waiting in line. I've seen an average around here for the last couple of days of $3.65. Not too bad. I can't imagine having the prices some of you do around the country! You know who I feel bad for? The arsonists. It's gotta cost them a fortune now to torch places! What's this world coming to? :lol:
