| I haven't checked the prices for several days. Last Monday when I drove by it was $3.55 a gallon and since I had about 1/8 of a tank left, I thought maybe it'd go down a bit (*laughing hysterically now*) so I waited. I went on Wednesday and it was up to $3.79. I had $.60 in fuel perks from Giant Eagle so I went to their GetGo Station and only paid $3.19 a gallon.
Like FNF, I only drive locally so I don't use as much as I used to when I was working. At one point I worked in a different county for 6 years and my gas consumption was around $120-$140 per month depending on the fluctuating price of gas. And that was when gas was near $2 per gallon. I shudder to think what it would have cost me if I were paying today's prices.
(Our Giant Eagle supermarket gives out $.10 in fuel perks for every $50 you spend there. You have to use them within 3 months of earning them and, if you spend a lot of $$ there, can get a free tank of gas if you work it right.)
