First time I’ve seen gas at $4.00/gal in the East Valley.
OK, technically it’s not $4. But it’s close enough.
Saw it at $4.01 at the Basha’s on the corner of Elliot and Higley in Gilbert. Yesterday it was $3.94.
Could have broken the $75 mark if I’d waited until tomorrow to fill up…
Sigh.

We’re at about 4.40 in LA…. I was in mammoth a week ago and it was around 4.60 …….. haven’t broken $75 mark… hit maybe $65 ish…
4.50 in Newport Beach, CA
4.30 in Yorba Linda, CA
and thats just regular unleaded
Diesel is 5.00 or more a gallon
We’re averaging about $3.94 in Athens, GA right now, but I was able to fill up yesterday for $3.84 using my grocery store rewards card - I was so excited it made me nauseous!
It’s still cheap compared to Ireland. We just got back from a trip a few weeks ago and it was over $10 a gallon. I said I would never complain about gas again. I’m not happy about the gas prices but as a country it is going to force us to deal with something that we haven’t been willing to look at. We need to solve our energy problem. The paradigm has shifted quickly, GM just announced that they are going small. Suv’s just don’t fit the new paradigm anymore. I don’t think I will mind driving a Prius.
Depressing yes, but if you look around there are still lots of cars on the roads so one could argue that the gas companies still haven’t got to a significant price point where demand is dropping significantly to warrant them dropping prices.
Ugh…paid $4.43/gallon today. We’re getting closer and closer to $5!
Ha, rates went from 5.99 to 6.25 in the course of the week and gas went from $3.99 to $4.43….
I broke $75 last week - every time I fill up it’s worse. Hence, my purchase of a bicycle.
Gas just went down 1 cent to 4.01 here in Gainesville.
I think everyone should move to Charleston where the price is still a bargain at $3.89 and I know a very good real estate agent that you can use
$4.47 in Chicago. Lucky, the weather is finally turning and it is easy to bike to where you need to be.
Gotta love the Quick Trip! By the time you leave, you probably bought a delicious fountain drink and deli sandwich. Expensive trip nowadays huh?
I’ve always wanted a motorcycle. My lovely bride has always swiftly denied that thought.
Just the other day, she actually entertained it….
Clearly a bike wouldn’t fly for showing homes (motorized or otherwise). But for short trips, commutes, and much of general “driving about” it wouldn’t be a bad alternative. Well, until a snowbird pulls out in front of you….
And all you people paying $4.40+ have yet another reason to move to Phoenix!
I’m ‘lucky’ enough to happen to have an oversized gas tank, so I’ve been paying over $100 per fill up for many months now. I just count my blessings my ride has been paid off since about 11 months after I bought it new because my monthly gas bill looks more like an average car payment.
I am in Philly and I have seen it well above 4$. Life is changing.
I stopped the last fill up at $85. The tank wasn’t full, but I was. I think premium in North Scottsdale is just a shade under $4.50. I try not to look too closely at it, as its starting to make me angry when I think about it.
Putting 35 gallons of $5/gallon diesel in my truck, the few times a year it needs it almost requires a pre-approval letter from my mortgage guy to AMEX.
Stop taunting people in Connecticut with your cheap gas. Disagraceful!
Good lord. I thought I was feeling the pain at the pump here at $3.69. One of the reasons I bought a versa as well..
Here in Silicon Valley, we can only dream of $4/gallon gas!
$4.35 in San Diego. Just pawned one of my kids in anticipation of my next refill.
Did you read about those pumps that are charging by the half gallon because the meters are not caliberated to take more than $3.50 per gallon or so?
It is depressing, especially when you consider the future and where prices are likely to go. Maybe I am a pessimist, but I sadly do not see prices going down. The demand is getting way too high to have any hope for gas prices being even what they were a year ago.
Demand isn’t that high… it the speculators buying futures coupled with low production (on purpose) by OPEC.

They’re putting into production an Air Powered car. Sounds like a great real estate car to me.
