<p>Sorry, I meant to type 1.3 dollars, because whenever I make purchases in Yen, I just move the decimal over two places and tack on a dollar sign.</p>

<p>So yeah, 130 Yen.</p>

22

<p>A lot of stations are down to about $2.15 a gallon. Some places in the southeast burbs of Cleveland are about down to $2.09 a gallon. If it breaks below the $2 barrier and stays there, I will be happy with that. No more of that $3 a gallon BS.</p>

<p>Psh, spoiled Amerkanskis. In Soviet Union, gas buy you!</p>

24

<p>Low: $2.63, regular
High: $3.13, regular</p>

<p>Average: $2.85, regular</p>

<p>That’s Riverside (the low) compared to Big Bear (the high), with San Bernardino and Lake Arrowhead thrown into the mix (all southern California). </p>

<p>And I just bought my first car today, too. Woo. ;)</p>

25

<p>I paid $2.23 yesterday here in PA. Last week it was $2.49…gotta save it at the pumps since the home heating is going up!</p>

<p>I dont remember 19 cents… (25 maybe?) but I did graduate from hs in Royal Oak in 71. :)</p>

27

<p>I remember being able to fill my car up for 6 bucks!
( I also quit smoking when they were $.80 a pack)
:::::::::looking around for children:::::::::: I remember buying a bag of ____ for $10 too :eek:</p>

<p>On the other hand the hair salon I worked at in the late 70’s charged $40 for a hair cut- I dont pay more than that now.</p>

<p>NOrthern VA/Wash, DC area: lowest I’ve seen is 2.41/reg; highest is $2.79–all in a 2-mile radius, and that’s in the last 2 days.</p>

<p>SPeaking of inflation: I “noticed” last week when making T-giving travel reservations: when I moved from Chgo to DC in 1978, I could fly home (w/planning) for $98 round-trip. Last week, my sister bought a round-trip ticket from DC (Dulles) to Chgo (O’Hare) and back for $78. </p>

<p>And we wonder why so many airlines are going bankrupt??</p>

<p>Northern suburb of NYC-gas prices in the last week or so have been coming down every day or so…$2.79, $2.73, $2.69, $2.59. $2.53. I’ve been holding out until I’ve almost run dry, assuming this will keep happening. We were up to close to $4 at the worst. Absolute gouging, no doubt about it.</p>

<p>19 cents in Texas in 1972.</p>

<p>$2.79 in L.A.</p>

32

<p>$2.75.9/gallon - Fairbanks, Alaska, where the grass is always greener under the TransAlaska Pipeline.</p>

<p>Do you have websites like this for your state?</p>

34

<p>That website is part of the gas buddy system of websites. I believe they have one for every major metropolitan area. I love checking the prices of Hawaii and San Francisco, so I don’t ***** as much.</p>

35

<p>I’m surprised no one’s blamed bush yet.</p>

36

<p>the reason we havent said it is because it is so obvious that its his fault that its not worth spending one post talking about him (xcept this one and yours)</p>

37

<p>It’s Clinton’s fault.</p>

38

<p>I was on the bus this morning with one of my neighbors who smiled with glee because he saw a sign with $2.65/gallon for regular</p>

39

<p>In HI, gas prices are the highest in the nation & we’ve had prices well over $3/gallon & sometimes over $4/gallon for much of the past few months. The lowest I’ve seen gas recently is $2.77 at Costco & $2.79 at one station yesterday for the lowest grade. Many of the other stations still have gas priced above $3/gallon for the lowest grade of gas.</p>

<p>By not falling for calls for price controls etc., Bush did the right thing and the market is moving back to equilibrium. The system will work when you let it.</p>
