Just wondering what you all are paying for gas where you live. Regular unleaded where we shop was $4.04 today.

When at home I ride a recumbent bicycle so I don't buy gas. My bent gets 50 miles to a hamburger.

It seems to be about $4.09 most places around here, though I did find one place where I got it for $3.87 this week.   O0

Thanks. I just can't bring myself to buy a gas burning vehicle. Insurance, fuel, pollution, all that on top of payments just seems crazy to me.

But then I drive for a living so the idea of driving when I am not working just doesn't appeal to me in any way.

On the Kansas side of KC, it's running $4.03 - $4.09.  I was at my parents in SW Mo this weekend and it was about $3.85.  The lowest I saw was $3.79.

In the Upper Penninsula of Michigan, prices are ranging from as low as $4.04 on the Indian reservations to $4.25 or so in some towns.   It is obviously a variance due to state and local taxes.

Do you think prices will ever be this low again?

Yea..Tyro..and we were complaining about $1.59 gas...I cant believe you all are buying gas.  Hell I cant afford it.  I have to steal mine.  Just pull up , filler up and take off.  Hell I wish it was that easy.  IF i tried to do that I would be the one who could get caught just standing there thinking about it. 

Gas here is $4.08
