Guess I'd better stop looking for that used motor home huh? Won't be able to afford to go anywhere.

I checked on air fare today from my town to Rochester, NY. $307 per person for one way fare. We'd be driving a vehicle back. That's definitely cheaper than driving!!

Looks like gas here is between $3.14 and 3.19. I fill up at the co-op and have a card where it automatically charges it to our account so I really don't pay attention to the price. They're suppose to be a little bit cheaper than the other places. Also we fill up with ethanol.

Still $3.25 here. I don't know why Pa seems to be higher than a lot of other states. Must be the taxes.

Janet-speaking of motor homes...I read where the average motor home only gets 3-11 mpg!!! Ouch!

Between $3.10 and $3.20 - but it seems every time I go by the station the price has been raised again. What kills me is the oil companies whining that they need to make a profit - but I heard on NPR that they've increased the profits every quarter for the past 10 years or so.

Okay I even did the conversions so you American peoples would understand
Our prices around my province right now are about $4.69/gal. By this summer it's expected to be at least $5.86/gal.
It makes no sense here because the province (as well as Alberta) is basically sitting on an ocean of oil and we are bringing it up like crazy and shipping it everywhere. So we're shipping our stuff to places like Toronto, and they're only paying (as of last week) $4.01/gal.
