Gas Prices!!

OK, yesterday I put $80.00 in my service van, TODAY $97.00!

This is getting rediculous. I found the cheapest station at $3.30 per gallon.

How much are you paying??

Well, it was $2.92 yesterday when hubby filled up his truck.
Today he went to get gas in the can for the lawnmower, and it's $3.09

This is in the far southwestern corner of TN....it would be nice if people would post locations along with prices-- just for comparison.

Tina, I am in Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri.

I saw some stations were $3.34 and as high as 3.79 for premium blends.

Actually the exchange is so bad Canadians aren't going to the States anymore for Vacations.

It is only 90 cents American for every Canadian dollar.

So that would be about $5.40 American.

To tell you the awful truth we have the distinction of having the highest prices in all of North America.

Yeah, Woo Hoo!

I have resisted raising service prices or even adding a "surcharge". But I am about to make a substancial jump if it stays around $3.50 very long.

Hey Tina, get this.

Yesterday in Savannah, gas was $2.86 at Kroger and $2.99 at Wal-Mart. An hour and a half later, it was $2.99 at Kroger and $2.86 at Wal-Mart! I don't know what kind of games they were playing but I got gas at WM and the cars were three and four deep waiting to get to the pumps cause everyone else was charging $2,99 and up.

I am the Lead Hand for a Printing Company and all of the freight/courier companies charge a freight sur charge.

It can be as high as 20 %.
