1. I paid 4.45 today in Worth
If it gets the high we are fucked, because the economies will collapse again.

3. $4.19 in Cleveland
Traveled last week, paid #3.84 here, $4.05 in Gary Indiana, $3.57 in Missouri, $3.67 in Iowa and $4.19 on the return trip in Indiana.

The prices in Chicago were $4.27 when I came through.

4. Still under $4.00 in SW Florida
In fact, I work in a poor area and it's a good 10/15 cents a gallon cheaper than other areas. It's very nice to know that these station owners aren't ripping off their neighbors, whereas other stations in weathlier areas ARE.

9. When I lived in Chicago I didn't have a car.
Or at least half the time I didn't have one and when I did have one I didn't rely on it for getting to work. I walked or used public transportation. Now that I am in Wisconsin its not an option for most jobs. I really miss that about Chicago.

10. drove through Chicago Sunday
$4.57 was what I saw then. I was glad that I still had gas from Wisconsin then.

Now I'm home in NJ to lower prices and no pumping! The one thing I hate about being on the road is pumping my own gas. Jersey girls just do NOT do that.
