Default Gas prices going up again.

So I hear that oil prices went up over $5 a barrel today. So what does that mean for us? Higher gas prices again. I even heard that we could be hitting the $5.00 a gallon price soon.

So what are you paying for gas now ?

Today we paid $3.19 a gallon for cash for regular gas. But we did see regular as high as $3.32 for cash. Add another 10 cents a gallon if you are going to use your credit card.

So even with 1/4 tank, I put $40 bucks in and my van is still not even full. I guess we will be driving my little gas mileage car sooner than later.

I had to buy gas for myself last week for the first time in about 30 years.

You definitely had gas pump shock !

Just curious, how much did you actually pay for gas the last time you pumped it and paid for it some 30 years ago?

I was just whining about not having company paid gas. You seem to forget about a certain daughter.

I'm really shocked to say that this time everything is going high either it is food or gas or petrol.I don't know what our government is doing.

They say $10 a barrel is about 10 cents at the pump. The unrest in the middle east is pushing the price up but they also said the U.S. is awash in gas. Bottom line is they don't know what will happen. Could go up because of the trouble over there or could actually go down because we have so much gas here right now. We only get about 9% of our oil from the middle east so it won't affect our supplies but could affect global oil prices.
