Arrrgh, prices here jumped 15-20 cents overnight! It's "summer time" (yes it's 85 degrees outside), so the oil companies feel like gouging the crap out of everyone . Ow my wallet.

But I'll bet you're not paying $1.99/gallon for premium like we are in San Diego! I was in the LA area for the Long Beach Grand Prix last weekend and the same gas from the same manufacturer (Mobil) was $.20/gallon cheaper!

And it was a lot less than that in Denver a couple of weeks ago.

We had the same gas price jump in Chicagoland. It's $1.99 for premium around here now. It has gone up 40 cents in the past 2.5 weeks.

Premium gas (92 octane) in Sacramento, CA is $2.07/gallon. Good thing our STOOKS have a decent MPG otherwise I would be broke.

Okay, y'all got me beat...it's around $1.75 here now. Still sucks considering it was $1.50 a few weeks ago.

Just stop and think what all those 10 mpg SUV drivers flying by you on the freeway are paying for gas.
