How much does gas cost in your area and does it change your vacation plans for this summer? Here in Chicago gasoline is near $4.50 per gallon and I definitely don't plan on taking any long trips this summer.
 
Regular 89 is $3.89 as of Friday,out in the boonies. I have a feeling it is going to higher when I go today.
 
$3.99 .. cost $140 in gas for the dw and i to take a nice drive
yesterday ..
 
Time to start taking public transportation and walking as much as possible. We haven't had a car in two years since living in the UK. We will have 1 car when we move home but luckily SF has great easy public transport.
 
$4.84 in Northern California. The price of gas has definitely changed my driving. My friends and I carpool alot more when we go out together. I live a hour from the nearest large shopping opportunities. So, if one of us goes shopping we usually ask each other if anyone needs anything. I wish some of my coworkers would carpool, but so far I have not managed to convince any of them. Public transporation is out because we do not have any available in my small rural community.
 
:) Thats what I was trying to tell DH last week. What kind of barrels did you get? Last thursday it was $ 3.99 to $ 4.20 I'm sure it's higher now.

Miss JP...I used two metal drums that I've had for years...I also have some heavy "plastic" drums...they should work as well...if dark in color. I would not use the white ones...Also when storing gasoline for longer periods a fuel stabilizer is called for....
 
I paid $4.04 today, but that is at the station that gives $.05 off each Sunday. Everywhere else was $4.09.
 
It was $ 4.22 yesterday....
Paul and I have started carpooling to work
when ever possible.

I don't think it'll change any summer plans we have because we have
to go and we have to drive.:)

Using my google and my handy pocket calculator - $5.83 American dollars. I guess it has to travel further to get here!
