well our prices in saudi like 80 SR about in US 10$ or 12$ and gas in US is very cheaper than us.
Gas these days is ridiculous. i'm payin like $4.51 a gallon here in my town and thats like one of the cheapest. i think i'll start riding my bike every where lol.
i was just wondering what the gas prices are in your town or city or wherever you live because its gettin out of control.

Makes me glad that I've been to lazy to get my license thus far...
But yeah, it's essentially going up and up and up. Might fall a little briefly, but in the big picture, it doesn't want to stop going up (and up and up).
YAY FOR MY STRONG AS ANYTHING LEGS!
But yeah, is it $1.50 a litre here now? Something like that I think....
A decade ago it was around half that to a little over half that.

Yeah, it's about $1.40-$1.50 at the moment, it is ridiculous. I remember the days when it was under a dollar, even under 90 cents. Those days are long gone now and I can't imagine the price going down any soon. Everything is expensive these days and a lot of people are finding it hard to even live. Food, petrol and houses over here are insanely expensive, it's sad.
It's hit $4 here, highest I've seen was $4.09. Last couple of days I've seen $3.98 around, like that helps. ****ing bastards. I'm going to start burning down gas stations and ****ing destroying everything that runs on gas. There's no compensation in wage or ANYTHING to make of for the loss. In this case, I say, **** you, America. You're a ****.
But gas is kinda like that everywhere.
I remember when you were happy with a RADISH.
It's around Ł1.10-1.20 (around $2.20-$2.40) a litre, depending on where you are in the country... like here its pretty expensive, but the more north you go the cheaper it seems to get =/.
Its getting stupid now, even Diesel is getting so expensive its no longer cost efficient to use it over petrol. Makes me glad i stopped using my car over a year ago, and now its sold so i won't be using one for a long time... which is a good thing

I have an Aygo, which is such a small, speedy little machine that fuel costs are barely even an issue. The petrol prices are really terrible, like when we had the Mitsubushi Space Wagon. It was a family car and whilst it was comfortable, it was pretty much eating us out of house and home.
So yeah, tiny Aygo's are a better option, even if I can't get comfortable in it...

THIS SIGNATURE IS VERY DISTRACTINGS
I was the holder of the highest amount of rep that ever lived on TFF. 1788. lolz. I ween.
$4.51 per gallon?! Lucky you! Ours is Ł1.30 per litre! And litres are a lot less than gallons, and the pound is a lot stronger than the dollar! Aaargh... *bangs head off wall*
It is only about 3.80 here. It will get higher though. It has risen ten-fifteen cents in the past month. It really sucks because my car is very old, and can't handle the ethonol they are putting in gas these days. It just sucks it up faster than it used to. Either that, or I am imagining it. It almost cost me 50 to fill up, and I drive a car..not an SUV or a VAN or a truck.....just a little car.
I heard on the news this morning that petrol is going to be up to $1.75 over here in Australia soon. That is insane, I can't believe it has risen as high as that. I heard that it might be up to $2 by Christmas time so nobody will want to drive anymore. I'm fortunate that my car [even though I don't drive yet] is small and doesn't use up too much fuel at a time so my parents use it more and more. My parents car is a V6 so obviously it uses up a fair bit of fuel, my Dad barely uses it now since the cost of fuel is ridiculous.
Yeah I saw some shots on an episode of Insiders or whatever that show on ABC is called. Showed prices a tenth of a cent under a $1.60. $1.59.9 a litre. That's more than I thought it was at now...
It's not unlikely it'll be $2 by Christmas at the rate it's steadily increasing. The worst bit is I don't honestly see people going for cars with alternate fuel sources which could be a good deal cheaper later on...
Most have their flaws, even if the 'flaw' is just a lower top speed. Even if it is illegal to go that fast on most roads anyways.

Man I wish it was $2.00 in the US, honestly I'm sick and tired going to work just to spend 50% of my paycheck on gasoline alone. If things keep up like this I wouldn't be surprised to see "The Great Depression 2.0". It's really sad when less than 2 years ago gas prices were at $2.34, now its $4.05. We need to do something right now.

Well, be very thankful you have a job right now. Due to cut backs my last employer got rid of 25 people this year alone..including me. F.Y.I. Arlington is not as job friendly as I thought it would be, lol. I went an spent 3.94 on gas at Wal-mart...thank God for the little 3 cents off gift cards.
Has anybody been doing things differently since the gas prices went up? Got a new car....besides Chez lol. I have been putting on my money on a cheapy gas card so I can save freakin' 3 cents.
Yeah , gas is killing me and my family as well. With a 20 minute drive into work monday through friday, I have pretty much no money to myself... My mom is getting rid of her Durango for a brand new Accord to drive around, while my Alero is doing ok, but it holds next to nothing in the storage tank compartment, so I always have to fill up. It's about 3.78/gallon where I live, but the most rediculous part about it is that the gas companies are STILL MAKING RECORD PROFITS OFF OF GAS!! They believe that the economy is in an "upswing" so they feel the need to charge as much money as they please to 'cushion' themselves when the economy "cools off." Like really? Where do they get their facts from? It's sad that our president will do nothing about it since that is how his family became wealthy, so good luck on using some executive action. Also, quite a few house and senate representatives have gotten some nice funds to get elected for their positions, so no luck there at all. There is little to nothing to do to fight against it, since we all need gas sooner or later.

Yeah, it's starting to get to all of us now I think. It is for us, we can't afford to drive down to Ipswich twice a week now. We used to go twice a week sometimes, once for grocery shopping and once for just window shopping or a few odds and ends. I don't think we will be doing that as much now unless someone has to see a doctor or something of course. It sucks, it really does and it's ridiculous. My father said it might even come to grocery shopping once a fortnight, I have no idea how we could do that. We might have to start shopping locally, fortunately there's a grocery store about fifteen minutes away in another country town we visit occasionally. How are people meant to drive around anymore? Nobody can afford it! People have to drive to work every day, they are going to suffer from it. My brother's work is an hour away so that doesn't help either.
Damn these petrol prices.
Oil's going to hit US$250 a barrel before long, according to the chief of Shell (who is, of course, not too sad about this. Unless he knows anything about economics and how such prices could blow holes in everything). Time to find out when/where your buses are. If you don't have buses, then...bonne chance, I suppose.
