Fortunately, I only have to fill up about once per month.

Status: offline 		I paid $3.99 this morning and have seen it as high as $4.19....Funny thing, the stations that have run out of fuel are right next to the one's with highest prices now.
Couldn't imagine anyone is taking advantage of their fellow drivers....could you?

Friday morning when I left for work is was 3.53. On the way home it was up to 3.89 with people filling up everywhere so I jumped in line (with my last 20.00 on me)--Thank the stars I drive a small Yaris---

This afternoon its up to 4.09 and thats IF you can even get gas. Many stations are out. My Mom had to hit 4 stations before finding one with gas and my daughter went to four and finally gave up and came home almost empty.

Oh..Im just Northeast of Atlanta.

Ugh- Typos

                                                      The price of oil goes down, and the price of gas goes up.
I think i see a trend here.

Status: offline 		On Thursday gas was $3.69 per gallon on average. Friday afternoon the average had jumped to $4.99 per gallon. Saturday morning, after the governor warned gasoline retailers that the "price gouging" hotlines and investigators are still active (from Tropical Storm Fay), gasoline dropped back down to an average of $3.65 per gallon.

Interesting.

Status: offline 		I paid $4.09 last night. Seven stations along the 12 miles from my office to my house. All but one were sold out of regular and mid grade and a few had no gasoline at all to sell. The problem here isn't so much price but availability. People panicked and created a run and pumped the tanks dry - I refused to be one of the sheep and bought gas when I needed to. We're a nation of idiots. Maybe that's why Obama is so popular.

Status: offline 		On Friday it was $4.549 on Maui. But I haven't been around a gas station since then to know if it's jumped. Gee whiz, it just started coming down. While everyone else in the country was seeing drops, gas prices in Hawai`i (or at least Maui) barely budged. I think $4.669 was the highest I saw here. (Hana is probably the highest though. But they're on a fairly isolated part of the island, which would explain why.)

I want to get a can of spray paint, and go around and fuck up their gas stations.   I have never done anything like that in my life. 

We could start now.
 
Let's get the governors mansion too, and not forget our loving President's house.

Hang in there MissSCD, this is the modern version

We will get through it.
