$3.68 here. Kroger is most popular because you get 0.03 discount with Kroger Card and ten cents off for every $100 spent on groceries.

Uniballer-
New Jersey passed the law making it illegal to pump your own gas in 1949. At the time, legislators felt it was too dangerous to have untrained people dispensing such a flammable liquid. Oregon is the other state where it is illegal to pump your own gas. Because we have low gas taxes, our gas is cheaper than New York and Pennsylvania. Voters have repeatedly rejected initiatives to legalize self-serve in New Jersey.

Diesel here is $1.63 a litre here and gas is $1.45 a litre. Not sure what the conversion to gallons is. Just know it's a friggin lot.
We filled up our diesel truck on Sunday. It was over 1/2 full and cost $90.00
Here's what I would like to say to the gas companies

Here in the U.K. it`s expensive
Hope my calculations are correct !!
43 Liters = 11.37 U.S. Gallons
cost in the U.K =£49 =$97.10
Which I THINK works out to $8.54 per U.S. Gallon

$3.89 today
Shoot, when gas was just over $3.00 I could barely afford groceries. Now that it's almost $4.00 I can't afford groceries or gas. Good thing I'm moving back home to stay with my mom for awhile. I can't wait to get back to Omaha.

My husband thought about getting a scooter, but realized we wouldn't really save any money doing that. He figured that if you subtract the days it rains, it's too windy and mid-fall through mid-spring when it's too cold or dangerous to drive it (around here anyway), you're still left driving the regular vehicle a great deal of the time anyway. That's on top of paying a great deal for the scooter. So we nixed that idea.
