what are they where you live and how are they affecting your scrapping habits.
They are going up to $3.95 here, not really affecting my habit, I just grumble about it

It's about $1.25 a litre here in Ontario Canada, last time I filled my van up it cost me $170.00

Lastmonth I obtained about 11 blue barrels to hold my stuff until I have enough to make a run to my buyer. Some stuff I deal with can't sit for months so I have no choice but to move it ASAP, but as far as the aluminum etc goes, it can wait until the prices go up or the barrel is filled whatever comes first.

Also I'm not letting the van go much below the 3/4 mark on the tank.

The prices change so much and so fast, if you need to know, take a peek. Useful for planing trips.

Gas was at 3.35 the wednesday before mothers day weekend. It seems like it went up 10 or 15 cents a day since then. It was at 3.80 yesterday.

I commute 72 miles daily to work and limit myself to stops along my route to and from work and a few proven sweet spots. Oh yea, on the highway I stay in the slow lane and keep my speed at 60mph.

Actually have this one guy at work that used to use handicap parking, (I think they've shot horses in better shape then him) anyway, now he rides a bike to work. When he gets off his bike he'll grab his cane and limp on in. I'll bet a couple of our presidential candidates could get some MILEAGE out of that story!

$3.49 when I went to work 6AM on Monday, was $3.64 that afternoon when I went home, at 3PM. It's $3.65 now..........Clarksville, Tennessee (about 40 miles NW of Nashville, TN)

Today I saw from 3.49 to 3.97 depending how close to an an interstate highway you are. I don't buy gas within 1 mile of an major highway.

3.72 to 3.79 for regular here, diesel is bout 4.22 most places.

I thought that unleaded was supposed to be cheaper due to the refiners not having to put lead in the gas to prevent valve knock, man, they screwed us over with that lie years ago, and diesel is supposed to be cheaper yet cause they don't have to refine it as far. What happened?

It's all a scam if you ask me. Aren't we done with the winter blend now.

$3.61 to $3.67 here in St. Louis, Mo. for unleaded.

Then I'd have to buy something with a diesel engine in it.
