Two and a half weeks ago I payed for gas at $2.95. It was the most I had ever payed for gas and the total was $67.00. I told myself I would conserve because there is no way I'm paying over $3.00 for gas. For the entire summer I made a pledge that I would ride a bike if I had to. I made it. I survived. Gas is finally going back down, just as my tank was getting low. Last night I payed $2.83 and I can see that it is still going down.

So, has anyone here payed over $3.00? I pity the fool.

PS: What is the point of the fractioned number!??! It's always a certain amount, 9/10. SOMEONE EXPLAIN THAT!
 
My car is reccomended for super unleaded so i've been payin over 3 dollars for a while, the highest i got was to 3.63. No big deal though.
Good job on the bike thing, a lot of people are doin that, or buyin those annoying ass scooters.
 
I survived the epidemic as well:

2 weeks ago? I heard the prices were goin up, so I sped down to the local station and filled up as much as I could at 2.65. The next day it went up to 3 bucks. Since then I've driven sparingly. Today I thought my gauge was broken because I couldn't believe I had much left. But guess what happened? Another local station had a "customer appreciation" day, where the price was 2.59! I gassed up there, filled 3 gas tanks, and also got two free sandwiches. Pretty good day :thumb:
 
my highest was $3.85 in chicago. i forgot my debit card and it was fucking impossible to stop the gas on an even dollar amount now that it's so high.
we should pull out of iraq and take canada's oil and all that precious blubber they are stockpiling.

Canada is good for something afterall? wtfz0rz?
 
Lmao no doubt about that Dante. Almost impossible to get the perfect pump now, if I'm at like 9.97 or above and goin for 10 I'll leave it. Shit jumps up so fast its crazy.
