Julie, I can't believe those prices! I would have to invest in a bike or a horse! It was up to $3.15-3.29 here but now it has gone back down to $2.96 for regular. I just don't understand how they can raise and lower their prices the way they do, seems like if it costs one price in the morning it should still cost that price in the evening or on weekends. Mom and dad were up from Texas before the hurricane and they complained the whole time about Michigan prices. How we were the highest they found on their way up...I told them I know that California and Ny (yep, you Jan) were higher. They couldn't wait to get back home to fill up! DEE

Did hear that in my hometown the prices are going up and down. One of my friends paid like $3.39, and that evening when she drove by the gas station it was down to $2.99. It's certainly very crazy. I haven't gone far with my car...it's mostly been sitting in the parking lot here at school because I've been trying to get to everything by foot. Tomorrow I'm splruging, though, and going to the mall since I have no classes. :-)
