Hey Pip, how much is a gallon now costing in the UK? People in the US should feel fortunate ompared to European prices.

Between $3.14-$3.29 here is Hellhole, Oklahoma

Our gas went up today to $3.59/gallon. Thank God I have 3/4 of a tank. Maybe they'll go down this week. I doubt it with Memorial Day Weekend coming.... le sigh.

yeah, they're not going down. But analysts and such say they won't hit $4 so

I don't know what the latest prices here are - I haven't driven in a few days - I've been biking. BUT I have to pick up a friend in Denver Thursday...and will have to fill up first...boo...not looking forward to that

I'm spending $100 a week on gas, and I just can't afford that. I'm looking for a job closer to where I live so I can ride the bus. I'm getting rid of my car once it's paid off at the end of this year.

Will lets update this thread to today 04/09/2012 .5 years later.The gas is $3.95 today at BJ's wholesale in town.By the time we hit the road for Stevie's upcoming tour this summer.The gas probably be about $4.50 gal.I hope not.

Probably that little snarky remark that I made with the word"corruption" probably did not help matters.

sucks I have to drive 500+ miles roundtrip...Guess I will come back from the vacation without an arm and leg since that is what gas prices will probably be by then...

So I guess I will leave a trail of blood at the May 30th Stevie/Eye-sack show (in OKC) from my newly severed limbs so other Ledgies in attendance can hunt me down

Ooh... not sure actually. Ours is priced by the litre... I'm sure someone else will be able to convert if they join the discussion again! I just fill the tank when I have to! All I know is it cost me £45 to fill it completely.

So, I wonder if that puts Indiana as the highest. It's still $3.59 this morning.

1 gallon = 3.8 litres (apparently)

In the Uk we are paying just less than £1 per litre which would be just less than £3.80 a gallon. At a rough conversion that makes a gallon in the UK about $7.00.

think yourselves lucky
