Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Last weekend, gas had dropped back to about $2.39 here in Kansas City. On Wednesday I went ahead and filled the truck and Jen's car because I kind of figured prices were going to jump again on speculation of where Rita would hit. So, on Wednesday evening the prices had jumped back up .20 to $2.59.

I looked yesterday on the way home from work and they had popped another dime on to it, so as of last night, we were at $2.69.

The perts are saying possibly $5.00 a gallon if Rita does wat some expect it to.

:(

The joys of working from home…

One of these days I will have to drive someplace and see what gas prices are now.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

It's around $8US a gallon here. :mad:

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Yeah, but that's cause you guys are socialists.......

There were hour-long lineups at the pumps here in Montreal yesterday from about 5pm.
Anticipation of a price hike today that never came.

At least not yet. Price is still $1.09 per litre.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Just filled up - $2.66 US gallon in Michigan. I expect the price will jump again when Rita hits.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

It's been about $2.99 for regular here. We were in Miami yesterday and it was $2.79.

I love to socialise. :D

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

I filled up Wed night in the burbs and it was $2.53. I think it was around $2.69 up here but we are always higher - and will go even higher since the leaf people will be here soon.

1.10 a litre in Vancouver

Gotta love the foliage freaks and the money they bring with 'em...

If you want to know what the gas prices are, and where the lowest prices are in your area, go to
http://www.gasbuddy.com

That site filters you out to a local gas-price site for your area. Was really useful for me the night before Katrina hit - I filled both vehicles up at $2.44 and the next day it was up to $3.09.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

2.62/gal premium

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

$2.92/gall regular
$3.09/gall premium
$3.25/gall diesel

(Husband carries this info in his head.)

He's going to get my '79 VW Rabbitt Diesel back on the road because it gets twice the gas milage and cuts his monthly fuel bill in half. Right now, the poor thing is in the front yard, where the girls shoved it to make room for the U-Haul they rented to take the rest of the youngest's things up to the new apartment. Gives the place that nice Eastern Kentucky ambiance I love so much. :hmm:

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

so, you mow around it then? :p

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

It's gone down from $3.50 to $2.68 here, but yesterday I noticed it creeping back up to $2.79. Not looking good.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

What is "mow"? :p

This is Eastern San Diego County. The amount of rain we had this rain season was the third highest in recorded history. We let all the green stuff just go for it. It was beautiful. Then...the heat hit...and it all died and became flat beige stuff. The usual cycle. We have a gorgeous California pepper in the front yard that poisons the ground underneath it, preventing any grass from growing. Had a most dandy crop of weeds this year, though. Didn't care, they were green.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

:yowsa: so you're just happy to have any green at all then lol

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

$2.39?? You fucktard! :double-fi The lowest I've seen here for months is $2.69! Got up to $3.08 when all that stuff was happening in the aftermath of the 1st hurricane.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Morgan, if you want green absolutely everywhere, i have a quick and inexpensive fix next year.
Plant 12 pumpkin seeds.
They will take over your yard and provide you with gorgeous big green leaves... which mulch & shade the ground underneath (depriving the weeds of sunlight)... plus you'll get a ton of pumpkins in the late summer/fall to make fantastic pies with!

If they start heading towards the driveway or walkway though you'll need to redirect the vines (and they're ornery things, they'll turn right back around and head for it again - I had vines literally tying themselves in knots trying to go where I didn't want them to go, lol).

This tip provided by the over-exuberant gardener who didn't realize what 12 little seeds would do to her garden this year... and couldn't bear to cut the vines because they were so pretty! Next year I'm planting gourd vines next to my back patio and training them to go up runners so they'll shade the side of the patio that the sun sneaks under. :)

Oh, yes. Southern California is "beige." Everything. The houses, the buildings, the ground...it's sickening. There was *one* tree that got fall color in my neighborhood. They cut it down...tree murderers!...when they put in a new fence. We wept. Other than that, all the trees are year round green.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

I filled up for 2.67 yesterday

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

I don't have a clue.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

We were at $2.86 yesterday. Early last week I was over in the extreme NE corner of Missouri (about 30 miles), and filled up for fifteen cents a gallon less than it is here.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

1.13 per litre here in the BC interior.

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Smalltown Oklahoma its 2.89 and rising. It's all BULLSHIT!!!

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

2.61 here in Anchorage, AK

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood

I've changed your Message Editor Interface settings from basic to enhanced, you'll have all sorts of options now. :)


Anyone else that is having problems should go in to their UserCP --> Edit Options --> Message Editor Interface --> select: Enhanced Interface

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

No, actually petrol in the U.S. is quite expensive (if you can even find it). Gas however, is a lot cheaper than petrol.

I never understood why Europe insists on using petrol. They should switch to gas and take advantage of the lower price........ just imhydo of course ;)

MissEve...I saw the gentleman on television who grew that. Apparently the days of "endless sunshine" in Alaska make interesting things happen in the garden. :)

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Diesel is just as expensive as petrol here ..

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Weird... you're the only country I know with a liquid gas :huh: :blink:

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

it's hovering around $2.90 in most places here,but there's a small place just down the street running about 8-10 cents cheaper

Re: Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood
 

Yes! the pot farmers love it, lol!
