I took these photo's just 20 minutes ago.

Monthly expenditures are definately going up. What worries me in the long term is what the new gas price will be fixed at after Big Oil runs out of excuses. Gas prices will probably drop in the future, but they'll be higher then what they were before. Im guessing it will probably go down to 3.50 or 3.75 after all's said and done. I HIGHLY doublt we'll see it go back down to the 3.20 to 3.30 it was before. Why do i expect that? cause its what the big oil exec's did to everybody before. no reason to not expect them to dick us over again. Yeah I realize that oil production has peaked, but i cannot see how prices are justfied so long as Oil is turning BILLIONS in pure unadulterated profit.

edit: Oh and BTW, this is the cheap station in my area. The other stations usually charge 5 to 10 cents more.

More important then unleaded, is Diesal! Cost of foods, goods, and services should be going up soon.

I wonder where it will peak at. In an odd way, i hope its 5 dollars, or more!. Maybe that will get enough people bitching at the politicians to reign in those greedy bastards.

EDIT:
Oh here's a fun fact. Of my 8 hour work day today, 3 of them just went into my gas tank.
