How much is gas where you live? - Page 5 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Mom of 3 · 08-11-2008, 04:43 PM

How do you all do it paying 9 and 10 dollars a gallon? I am so sorry for you all. I believe it's lower again in Jacksonville, Florida. It's like $3.79 and like I said before, may be lower at BJ's. Bless you all that have a long way to travel back and forth to work, etc.

Here in NY gas is $3.90 where all excited about that just because its been over $4.00 for many months

KEEP LOWERING IT!!!!!

I paid 3.67 today, i thought that was a serious bargain.
My question is this. Where is the cap? Is there someone who can step up and say "enough"? I need to read up on the politics of oil and gas, i guess.

Write your governor! You guys have oil! Tell 'em to share the wealth!

It's been a pretty controversial idea, but they went through with it. I was amazed. A lot of people thought the money (almost $1 billion) could be better spent on alternative energy or public transportation projects, but our governor saw it as a more immediate problem. People needed help right away, and those projects would take time to be effective.

It also makes no allowances for income level. Everyone gets the same amount.

At the Indian Res gas station the price is $3.95

Others in town....$4.05

MeganS · 10-06-2008, 04:41 PM

oh my gosh oh my gosh!

So prices shot WAY up during Hurricane Gustav, back to like 3.79 and the like. Well they've been dropping steadily the last few days.

The average is now around 3.11. and guess what!? The guy around the corner - 2.99!!! SO exciting!

Sookie · 10-06-2008, 04:43 PM

Ours was $2.99 today in South Jersey. Oh you saw it too, Megan? LOL (Wawa?)

MyLadies · 10-06-2008, 04:47 PM

WOW!! $2.99 in Jersey? Awesome for ya!

here I think it's still $3.50 or so. I haven't bought since last week, then it was $3.51. Course across the state line in Idaho it was like $3.29 on Friday.
