Something has got to give soon, or else we will be creeping into the $5.00 range.

Someone needs to come up with a better alternative fuel fast then. Experts are predicting $5/gallon gas within the end of the summer.

This week in Hanford we finally went over $4. Prices ranges from $4.03-$4.27.

Albany is now officially averaging $4/gallon. One station here in town is selling for $4.01, the other two are selling for $3.99 and $3.97.

I was in Chicago all of last weekend. Most of their stations, especially in the heart of Chicago were around $4.30 to $4.60 depending on where you were. One station had premium gas at $4.80!

I was smart and filled up before we got to town and drove the whole weekend on that tank of gas. Didn't fill up until I got back home and paid only $3.83.

We just paid $3.69 at our local Shell. Premium here is $3.98.

Just payed $3.75 for regular at Exxon.

Just wait, the drought is causing them to go back up here.

Still 3.68 for Ethanol at the Dahl's Fuel next to the Dahl's Foods I'm currently working at in Des Moines. Thankfully this is my last week training there before I am transferred to Ames again. it's a 20 mile round trip working in Ames, and 92 mile round trip at the Des Moines store I train at. And no, they aren't reimbursing us for fuel cost, nor are they really paying the management much more than the grunts either. *sigh* $13 a day for gas is a real pain in the b llsack when you only make $10/hour.
Meanwhile, Ames is averaging from 3.70 - 3.80. However Hy-Vee is currently giving a 7 cent/gallon discount on gas with store purchase @ Hy-Vee gas.
