Victoria, BC now at $1.24/litre (by the way, that's for the cheap stuff). So, that's about $4.70/gallon.

Premium is about an extra $0.20/litre, so about $5.46/gallon

It was $3.25 yesterday when I filled up, but that was at the cheapest station. Other stations are running 25 to 30 cents more here (90 miles N of Seattle).

They said that it is likely to increase, what with the situation in the Middle East.

I agree but this Toyota simulator is still funny.

Saw one today that was $3.37 if you paid cash. Otherwise it was $3.59! It's only been a week since I filled up and it's risen 12 cents.

$3.79 for regular
$4.09 diesel

That's what I get for living in a big city. It seems to be jumping by about .05 - .10 cents daily!

$3.15 in North Jersey.

The cheapest I saw though if you went to one of those Bob's gas stations was $2.95.

wait untill it hits $5 later this year and a loaf of bread is $4

what happened last time it hit $4? many truckers stopped running loads because they would loose money.

we already see hyperinflation kicking in, a 10# sack of potatoes at walmart went up $1 in 3 days.

if you care about your family you will prepare now.

Gas increased to $4.46 per gal. yesterday. Food prices ramped up due to increased transportation costs. Anything with corn syrup as an ingredient ran over the tipping point since ethanol demand competes. A 1.1% increase is being reported but our food bill went up 35% over December; sweet peppers cost as much per pound as steak.
