Here in Johnson City it jumped from $2.49 yesterday to $3.05 today!
Luckily, I work for the newspaper and got "wind" of the gas price hike and filled up mine and my husbands' car/truck last night at 2 a.m. just in case. Boy am I glad we did.
They are even rationing gas here! Only 10 gallons per person and because everone is freaking out that gas is STILL going up, there are lines at every gas station in town and the city has agreed to shut down all gas stations as of 5 p.m. today. A few stations actually ran empty of 11 a.m this morning.
We're in the process of getting a moving van and moving 5 1/2hrs from here.......we're having to pay for the U-Haul and the gas and I'm not sure if we can afford it if gas prices stay they way they are!
Eeeck! THIS SUCKS! |
