031:365: gasoline

This is my 031.365 photo. We only own one vehicle, our other vehicle is Stephen's company car which he gets to switch out every few days for a new car and we also get unlimited free gas! It's such an awesome perk. We rarely drive our own car, maybe only 1-2 times a week. It's a stick shift and gets great gas mileage so we probably only need to get gas for it every 4-6 weeks. Well lately we've been driving it more due to changes in Stephen's work schedule. So this morning I had to take our car to work, it was on empty so I stopped to fill up and happened to have my camera in my purse. I was surprised how much it's gone up in price! Cost me $36 to fill up my tank, when before when prices were at a lower average it would cost about $20. I feel for all of our friends and family with the inflation of gasoline and how it affects their budget. I mean we all need to drive our cars! So how much is gas by you right now? I checked prices where my family is: $3.74 in Fountain Valley, $3.41 in Corona, $3.68 in Mililani Town, $2.95 in Humble, $3.36 in Sioux City, $3.39 in Boynton Beach. I hope the news forcast will be wrong and we all won't be paying $4-5 per gallon this summer!
