How much do you pay for gas? (in your car)



Recommended Posts

$2.83 a gallon for 10% ethanol grade

$2.87 a gallon for reg. unleaded

$1.90 a gallon for E-85

It takes about $40 to fill up my PT Cruiser here in S.E. South Dakota.

I am in Spring Texas. I drive a Chrysler Pacifica. THANK GOODNESS I ride a vanpool to and from work !!!!!!!!!

Filling my 21 gallon tank is almost $60. If I were driving to and from work, I would be filling my car at least twice a week. But due to the vanpool I only have to fill up once a week, and my tanks not even empty when I do fill it up!

Gas prices are too (WAY TOO) high.

Anywhere from $279-$2.86 her e in Anchorage. Took me $52 to fill up me Dodge Durango. I have to fill up about every 3.5 weeks, luckily I live real close to my work. My DH pickup takes even more then that and he has to fill up about every 2 weeks.

In The Woodlands, Texas last Thurday it cost me almost $40 to fill up my Mini Cooper. That was a shocker! I have to use the highest octaine - Super Premium. I think it was $3.19 a gallon.

We're about $2.69. It took just over $70 to fill up DH's truck this weekend.

I should add, the in-laws are paying about $7.80 per gallon, so you'll hear no complaints from me! :eekB:

We stopped yesterday to get gas for my husband's Lincoln Navigator. I wasn't paying attention, but when he got in he said "that wasn't bad only $40." I said "Well you must have already had half a tank before you filled up." He said "Yes I did!" He can't pull a fast one over me very often. I know his tank is twice as big as my Mini!

Wheetsin, where are they paying that much?

$2.99 here in Fort Worth - it cost $45 to fill up the Accord! More than I just spent on 2 weeks worth of groceries for myself (thanks, LapBand!).

Here in Tampa it ranges from about $2.85 to about $3.15 for regular unleaded. It costs me approx $75-80 to fill up the van. But amazingly enough I get about 29 miles to the gallon in that thing so thankfully it lasts me a good long time.

Where I live in south Texas we average about $2.89 for regular. Sucks....oh well.

Did anyone hear that cigarettes are going up a dollar in September? I think it might be just in Texas. Ours average around $3.20 a pack here. I will definitely quit if they do!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
