I'm whining
 Unleaded gas has hit $4.729 a gallon at the place I work.  The other gas station in town is $4.769.  I'm glad I only live
2 1/2 miles from work.   I got 50 gallons of heating fuel yesterday for $261.00.  It almost made me sick.  It used to be that they didn't even deliver anything under 80 gallons, but with the price these days, they changed the policy. On a brighter note, the sun is shining.

 OUCH!!!
Our gas is $3.89, but in honor of you, I resolve to not complain since yours is a dollar more!
Luckily it's warming up here & we aren't needing as much propane for heating the house.

 We are paying $3.74, about 20 minutes from us in Maryland I filled up for $3.63.  Due to the rising costs of gas, we bought 2 mopeds that I can go back and forth to work on - I only work 3 miles away, the moped gets 55 miles to the gallon.  My truck gets 11 miles to the gallon....this was a no brainer for us.  I was putting in $75-$100 a week in gas and I do not go anywhere.  I only go to Michael's once a month now....how sad is that!

 Holy Toledo! That's crazy!

I'm seriously changing the way we get around the town... been walking Z to school and then driving in, but next week, I'll be biking every day to work.

 Just think how healthy we all will be if we start walking and biking instead of driving every where. :-D

 $4.72!?  Yikes!  The $3.59 here seems bad enough.  Wish we could ride bikes, but 40 mi. is a bit far for the little ones and way too far for me.

 3.99 here at the cheapest place by work, by home its 4.09. I drive 35 minutes to work each way, wish it was cheaper to take public transportation, but it works out to more since it would be 3 trains.

 It was $3.82 a gallon yesterday.  I'm like Susan, I spend $75 to $100 a week for gas, but I do work 15 miles away.  I am still driving everywhere, but I sure drive a lot slower and coast a lot.  These gas prices just suck!!

 3.68 here.  I expect 3.70 before the weekend.  Stupid gas companies.  I'm only about 2 miles from work and get about 26 mpg so its not to bad but still.  I thought about a moped but thats money I don't have PLUS I would look really goofy on one.  Trust me on that.

 $4.20 here in sunny northern California.  I've been walking to/from work to help conserve.  Sometimes that's a few times a day of doing that.  The walk feels good, though.

Re: I'm whining
 I filled up yesterday and got sticker shock!  It was just over $55.  That's the first time I've ever paid over $50 and I think over $40 even.  The per gallon price was "only" $3.65, but it took just over 15 gallons.  I was pretty much riding in on fumes.  I guess I haven't let it get that low in a long time.

As a matter of fact, I thought my car only had a 14 gallon tank.  It's a 2000 Ford Taurus station wagon.  hmmmmmm
