Seattle area 3.93 yesterday for regular unleaded/ 3.57 today in central FL. Added taxes can make the difference.

And the shocker when in Seattle was the car rental was about $450 and the TAXES added another $250!!!!!! They really sock the tourists to help pay for the stadiums and such. Lovely city, glad we were able to live there at one time, but now am glad to live in a more rural area.

Mom to 5, I worked for my dad as a bookkeeper when gas was that low. My wage was $1.00 an hour. Think that's what he paid the counter fellows, too. Different times. Houses, cars, everything cost less.
