Gas Price Wow...

August 3rd, 2006 at 11:24 pm

It's been quite the week for driving. We drove to three medical appts, a trip to the grocery (the next town over)and just the back and forth to my oldest's job at the school pool. Yesterday, I ended up disgruntingly having to fill up our smaller van. Boy, am I glad I did! I drove past the gas station this afternoon, and the price was at $3.13 - wow! Yesterday's $2.94 was soundly put in an altogether different light.

I am wishing we had topped off the big van (conversion full-size)for our upcoming camping trip departure this weekend. Oh well, it's not like that van gets anything resembling decent gas mileage when it's fully loaded with our camp gear. Still looking forward to the trip - gas be darned!

    I am with you on the gas. It is so frustrating. I filled up today at $3.09/gallon costing me $58.50. The only good thing is that I have been doing only running around town and the last time if filled up was 12 days ago. I have been averaging 9-12 days between fill-ups, but three times a month comes between $150 and $180.

    Hi--I have a conversion van as well...it is so fun to fill it up! OUCH! But I do adore it and my four kids like it too. The gas just shot up to $2.99. That is high for our area. Enjoy your camping trip--
