    I live in South Florida, Gas in my neighborhood jumped from $3.49 / gal for regular last week to $3.77 / gal in the same gas station today.

    How much are you paying for gas in your area today compared to a week ago?

    Gas was $3.75 on Wednesday when I last filled up.

    Our gas prices are usually the highest in the U.S. but the prices lag behind the West Coast prices by about six weeks. With prices still going up on the mainland, I try to get gas whenever I get below a half tank, before the price goes up again. I have always done this during hurricane season in the past anyway, even if the prices are on the way down.

    it was $3.45 last week and is $3.67 here for the cheap stuff (87) sometimes you can find it cheaper around here, but it is normally 85 instead of 87. When I look at the price of Diesel, it makes me so glad I drive a Prius! :thumb:

    Yesterday I paid $3.649 per gallon for about a 7-gallon fill. Recently prices have gone up quickly and dramatically; only about a month ago, gas was about $0.20 less expensive - never say 'cheaper' about gasoline! But that's all right with me; even with my old 'gas-guzzling' Scion xA, I only filled up 6 to 7 gallons every other week. With the Prius, I've gained about 10mpg in my normal driving cycle, so it's still a 1/3 improvement!

    In the Des Moines area it is $3.34 however we were at Sam's Club and they were still $3.29. Went to Eastern Iowa yesterday and they were $3.45 they always seem to be about a dime higher.

    It is bad when it cost more to fill the GoldWing than it does a auto. Gotta love your Prius. We got right at 50 mpg on the trip to see the 99 year old mother-in-law. She is one remarkable lady. She wants to know about something new on the Prius each time she sees it. Then she goes into talking about traveling by horses when she was young.

    I bought Chevron at $3.499 yesterday.

    Oregon and New Jersey require that professionals fill your tank, you are forbidden by law to do it yourself. :thumb:
