I Paid $3 for Regular Gas Yesterday.
Actually, the pump said $2.9999, but what's a ten-thousandth of a cent among friends?

Bought 4 gals in Pismo Beach, CA.

Anyone else paying $3?

€1.35 per litre.

Which works out to about US$6.50 a US liquid gallon.

Glad I have a bicycle and even happier Holland is flat.

Then again, this is not quite a hummer is it?

4. At least one place in Sacramento I know had premium for $3 yesterday.
I don't use the car much but that caught my attention when I was filling up.

12. I got lucky today. $1.60.....
the lady at the station told me, "fill up... I just got the call to raise it to $2.75 but I haven't had time yet." I told her I knew it was going up today so was glad I got there before hand.
