How much is gas where you're at?

[Surfah]

$3.75 last night for 87. You Californian's have to be over $4 right now.

I calculated it out a few hours ago. It's $5.45 a gallon here for 85 octane. It's about $5.85 for 87. And yet traffic still sucks here.

$3.95 last night for 87 octane.

Looks like I'll be riding my bike to work again as soon as the rainy season is over. We're nearing the $3.60 mark here.

this makes me glad I'm a ten minute bicycle ride from work.

Yeah my brother dropped me and my dad off and then he continued up the road to his workplace. He'll pick us up this evening.

It's about $3.43 here now most places. Today I carpooled with my father and brother in my little Mazda as opposed to taking the Chevy 1500 and my brother driving separately in his F150.

Most of the other guys I work with are carpooling together as well.

Drill, Obama, drill.....

Gasoline prices across the nation rose 33 cents a gallon on average the past two weeks, prompting some analysts to fret that pump prices could soon hit the $4-a-gallon psychological barrier and stall the USA's nascent economic recovery.

Gasoline is averaging $3.51 nationally for a gallon of regular, with prices over $4 in California and elsewhere. Crude oil prices, which are behind the gasoline surge, settled at a 29-month high Monday on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

The Obama administration is considering deploying the USA's 727 million-barrel strategic oil reserves to ease prices, William Daley, White House chief of staff, told NBC's Meet the Press on Sunday.

That doesn't seem abnormal for Europe. It's hovered around $6-8/gallon in Spain for at least 13 years now.

I don't know about Spain but here are the prices for the UK over the last 10 years...



Spain's unemployment rate has been very high as well. Something around 20%.

Edit: prices for the last few years in the UK (which is missing from above)...

3.23 at the station in Kaysville last night - $3.18 at Smiths in Layton

Uncle Ted the price in London looks like it is less than it was 2 and half years ago when we were visiting my brother. In the summer of '08 it was $10/gal.

[Surfah]

$3.25 today.
