Dang Tink! better stay home and grill them instead!! Wow!!! So anybody get a cost of living raise?? Sheeeesh...[/quote]

Not me, congress spent mine this year. They did however, give themselves a raise.[/quote]

Me either. I think we were told we didn't get one because there was no cost of living hike. hmmm.

My daughter has a 45 minute drive to work everyday. I don't know how she is going to manage. She is trying to catch up after being out of work for 2 years and Wells Fargo is going to foreclose on her house. The last thing she needs is this gas price hike.

What gets me about gas prices is they should only be upping the prices when they receive a new load of gas.
What's already in the tanks shouldn't be sold at the new higher price. Every time they hear on tv that the price of oil went up they run out and change the pumps.

I agree with you 1000%. I have to lose weight also and being hungry because you can't afford food stinks.
But if we both work on quilts from our stash we well at least stay warm.
Oh went by the gas stations today and they are up to $3.95 for the cheapest and $ 4.25 for the highest.
It does make you wonder where we will end up.
Good luck to all of us.

That is not a bad price, in Australia petrol is around $6.30 a gallon

this morning when I passed the gas station it was $3.44. Two hours later when I went to grocery store the same station jumped to $3.59 It just does not make any sense to me.
What is up with these prices. In Englewood, Ohio
