    Default Gas $4.00 a gallon?

    On our local news tonight, they said we would see gas prices of $4.00 a gallon this summer. I live in Kansas.

    We've been paying that for a year here. It sure is crazy though. Here one of the pipelines travels right through the country and we still pay that much

    We just went over $3.90 this week so I think we will hit $4.00 befor summer.

    Wow! You guys are paying a lot for gas. I filled up a few days ago for $2.77 a gallon. I wonder why there is such a big difference in prices. I live in PA

    We're only pennies off the $3.oo mark here too so over $4.00 doesn't suprise me....but oh man is it a scary thought for my budget.

    I commute too those gas prices are going to ruin our budget. We are just under 3.00 a gallon here. I was watching the news on this and they said the prices were to drop in June or July. (MSNBC) I hope they are right.

    I work at a vets office 4-5 days a week and then I also pet sit, so I am not looking forward to higher prices. Right now we're sitting right @ $3.00

    Ouch!
    My dh commutes 100 miles round trip. I'm glad he has a motorcycle he can ride most of the time. That really helps.

    I don't doubt it. We are already fluctuating between $2.94-2.99/gallon for the cheapest stuff.

    Our gas (regular unleaded) is around $2.80 a gallon now, so they are talking about a dollar or more increase in the next couple of months.
