I have to fill up tomorrow--should be around $3.78/gallon. Ouch! Fortunately, I get about 24 miles/gallon in city driving and I work from home, so it can take me over a week to go through one 11 gallon tank of gas.

Luckily, food prices aren't up too much here--one of the perks of living in the Midwest. We're still paying about $2.60/gallon for milk. Other food price increases have been moderate or not even noticeable.
