TOO MUCH. thats what I'm paying.


We got two cars and I'm spending 40-50 bucks each time i fill one of em up. I saw prices for 2.94 the other day and I jumped on it.

We just decided to get a Racetrak card. You get 10% off on the gas you purchase from them for the first 2 months, and after that its 2% off per gallon. And you get reward points for 1% of the purchase price. I figure it will add up and I might get enough reward points for a slushie one day.

I go through about $30 average per day in gas. $ 3.12/gal here.

I cut lawns so by the time I fill up the truck and the mowers it gets ridiculous.

Get this I traveled to Wooster OH from Wisconsin last week on my motorcycle and it cost me about $150 just in gas. That is crazy it used to cost $6-7 to fill my bike up now it's $15.

i am a 51 year old male on dialysis for 3 years now. This is my second time. My brother donated a kidney to me about 13 years ago. I found this site on another site. I had to laugh when i saw what it was called. I hope to meet people from all over to talk about dialysis.

$2.85 in Southern Maryland, $3.01 for Diesel. I'm going to buy a bike. The cost of everything is just getting out of hand. My electric bill is sky high and we don't do dialysis anymore. :banghead;

Today 94.6 cents per liter. I run mostly propane at 65 cents a liter. Somebody convert that please. Too much anyway considering it comes out of the ground in my own province.

My brain isn't working right or you pay way to much for gas.  1L = .2641 U.S. Gallons

If my math is correct (a bit early for math ;D) you pay 24.98 a gallon

(94.6 x .2641) = $24.98

Just thought of something...is 94.6 U.S. currency?  May actually be more or less depending on that.
