I finally did it! Today was the First time I paid over $2.00 a gallon

[scarlett1]

for gas. Several weeks ago I paid $1.99 9/10 but that was the highest. Today I got it for $2.13 9/10 took $35.25 to fill my Camry. I knew it was a matter of time, But until now I've able to catch it as it dipped below two dollars, but it has been a while since it has done that around here.

7. Kansas side of Kansas City

it is actually less expensive in Missouri, lower gas tax and if you have ever driven the roads in Missouri you'll understand the gas tax is less

2. Get use to it, the oil president will have it at 3 dollars a gallon

by summer.

3. I paid $2.19/gal the other day

I am so pissed that gas has gotten so expensive but did we expect anything different.
:banghead:

4. I just drove by about 8 stations... each one... 2.28

I could swear it was 2.09 two days ago...

Funny how they all rise to exactly the same amount at exactly the same time. Used to be a reason to suspect collusion... now its considered business as usual.

6. And lots more drive-offs lately...

where do you live that you haven't paid that yet?

9. I know, as a Lawyer I've represented people who have driven off

without paying for gas. It is a misdemeanor in Kansas

10. You know, I never have paid more than $2 a gallon.

My last fill-up was at $1.99 9/10.

There are benefits to living in TX. :shrug:

11. I figured a Texan would answer my post with that gas is less there, I hear

New Jersey has been lower as well because of the lower gas taxes. Can anyone confirm?

[GOPisEvil]

12. There is gas over $2 here, but I can still find it under.

Actually, I saw a couple of places at $1.98 today.

13. I'll need to fill up tomorrow. I'll have to pay 2.119 to 2.139, unless

it goes up overnight.

I try to be careful about my driving habits and consolidate trips for errands and such whenever possible, and I can usually go 2-3 weeks on a tank of gas.

We have a road trip planned for summer, though, and I'm going to have to budget a lot more for gas than I thought.
