    Whats your local gasoline price?

    Just thought I'd get this going here since I just talked to the gas delivery truck driver at the station.. He said tank up now cause it's gonna be $4.00 a gallon in the morning..

    I'm not willing to accept a cut in wage
    Safe bet, neither are executives/stockholders of oil companies

    My wife, due to health issues rarely gets out therefore I do the shopping
    She is like in a time warp about the cost of day-to-day items
    It really startles her when she does get out and see what things cost

    Every year I get my statement from the Social Security Administration informing me of my projected (in the event the SSA should still exist, which I believe to be unlikely) earnings upon retirement
    I sincerely doubt that would afford 2 people the luxury of food twice daily when the current levels of inflation are factored in over the period of time between now and retirement

    I'm looking at 2 viable options
    1.) keep working

    2.) purchase enough land to start an old-folks-commune so we can grow food and share prescription medications and try to squeeze by somehow

    Hang on, it's not going to get any better in the foreseeable future

    .....reminds me of the time this old codger come into the hardware store where I was working......fellow wanted to purchase a broom and balked at the $7.99 price tag on a decent model on display.
    "The last time I bought a broom it was only $1.75!"
    The owner of the store stated, "That is odd, I can't think of anything else that has gone up in the last 17 years?"

    and, so goes the cycle of life

    He might be pulling you leg because I seriously doubt the driver would know what the price is going to be at the gas station. Especially when they are all different.
    Down in So Cal, it was below $3.00 for a short period a little while back but now, it is probably around $3.30 for the cheapest. I generally prefer super unleaded which runs at least $3.50 to $3.70

    People complain about gas prices and inflation yet still vote for u know who....baffles me.

    $2.759 here.
    Its summer time, its going to go up, it does every year.
    There is more at play in fuel prices than supply and demand.
    Weak dollar, commodity speculations, insane emmision requirements, etc.
    back from hiatus.

    Right now it seems to be averaging around $2.86 for regular throughout the state of Indiana, with the lowest at $2.79 for regular and here, in this town with 35,000 population, where I live our prices are always higher, have no idea why but they are and we have at least one station where the price for a gallon of regular tonight is $2.97!
