What are you paying for gas?
I am just curious, what are you paying for gas in your area?
Here in the St. Louis, MO metro area I am paying $2.77 a gallon. With a 45 mile round trip drive to work I am going broke.

The other day I filled up and it was $2.94 here in Big Rapids, Michigan. $30 didn't fill my tank up when normally $25 is more than enough .

What can I say? We have a huge oil field off the Scottish coast and yet the gov't slaps something like a 75% tax on fuel. If they took it off I'd be paying less than you guys.

Lowest is 2.99 for regular, ranging to 3.09.
High end is premium at 3.19.
Diesel at 3.05.
It's pretty strange, because there's usually a wider spread between regular unleaded and higher octane premium.

Being the best is not what always counts. What counts is always trying your best.
Remember who you are, and where you came from. That way you never get a big head.
May those that lost their lives in 9-11 RIP, for the things you did not many could do. You left so many behind so that you could save so few. For now we stand strong as one, and will not look back till the fight is done. (me)

There's a Surf City in NC, but I'd bet there's one in just about every coastal state with warm waters.
