Gas Prices...

I saw gas today for $4.03/GAL, self serve, regular today.

It literally made me sick to my stomach.
It was the gas station right off of exit 59 of the LIE, so I'm hoping it was higher since it's in a high traffic area -- but reguardless it is still crazy!

What is the highest you've seen lately?

I have a feeling like the price I saw today is NOTHING compaired to what we'll be seeing in the near future!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Gas Prices...

For the last few days it's been $4 and change by me at most stations I've seen.

DH and I were at the Toyota dealership on Saturday and the salesperson who sells most of the Priuses was very busy. She said she's sold many of them to people who would have never even considered looking at one, never mind buying one two years ago... all ages, all lifestyles, all income brackets.

Not surprised I think a lot of places raised it since many people will be traveling today (and this weekend in general) for mother's day.

DH called the dealer we bought my Prius from in January because DH wants one now too & he said they don't have any to sell right now, they even sold the demo. They are supposed to be getting some this week but they are all sold. He told DH he has sold more since the beginning of 2008 than he sold in all of 2007. There are at least 10 in my neighborhood that I know of. Our friends just bought a civic hybrid, they love it.

we traded in DH's mustang (yes he cried a little) for a regular civic- the waitlist was way too long for the hybrid and his mustang wouldnt have made it! but we are loving the gas mileage. My truck hasnt left the driveway since fridayChat Icon

Southampton ALWAYS has high gas. It blows my mind. And I am not talking about 7 to 9 cents more I'm talking 25 to 30 cents more per gallonChat Icon

Yes, it's crazy. The local gvt. is trying to fight the price gouging out here. But trust me, it goes way beyond gas. Everything out here is SO overpricedChat Icon

I went to look at one last weekend just to see what they looked like and was told there was a wait list! They even sold the demo model so they had none to show to new buyers.

Re: Gas Prices...
