Gas prices headed up again.

Here in Australia our petrol prices are around $1.30 per litre and rising all the time. It is getting expensive for most people but by the look of the prices in the U.S. we are doing okay! It is outrageous and I do wonder how most people can afford to fill their vehicles! For a rise to be 30cents it is really bad…When will it stop, I wonder…

Ours have been dropping but I also having been out in the past two days so I can't say if they're going back up or not. I can't see any reason at all for such a huge jump in gas prices! It's not like the big oil companies are hurting for money, except maybe BP. Of course, they're all about profits so I believe they'll use any excuse to raise prices. I'm going to have to check out our prices around here now. It's just been way too hot to go out so I've avoided it as much as possible. I'll ask my husband but I doubt ours have jumped like that. He would have been complaining about it if ours have jumped 30 cents a gallon here because he drives about 60 miles to work.

That is really weird, since I heard on the news that gas prices are suppose to be going down because of the events going on in Europe. Honestly, I haven't seen it happen here except for the gas stations that normally has theirs higher than everyone else. They have finally lowered theirs to match everyone else. I have seen some though that has gas at 2.85, I don't know why a person would pay that, when it's 2.55 right across the street from it. I know that the price of gas is high in Washington St. Our average is around 2.55. Is it every single station that raised their prices? I know a lot of the BP stations are being boycotted or even vandalized. I also think the owners of these stations jack up the prices, especially in the smaller cities where people have no choice but to stop there. I think that's a sad shame in my opinion.

Here is Savannah the lowest price today is $2.39, average $2.54 and highest $2.69. The lowest price is at a local Kroger Gas Station and I get an extra .15 cents a gallon off with my Kroger card.....$2.24 which is pretty good.

WoW! That's outrageous. If that happened here in Aust, the prices would be frozen and an enquiry under way. Ours has gone up about 4 cents, but I think it went up a few weeks ago. You don't think the oil spill in the Gulf might have something to do with it?? How many barrels a minute is it pumping out??

hi I am here in the U SA and in California. here according to my friend Nelda who does drive, i don't, they claim that oil spill off Florida is the cause for the rising gas prices here but I think its more of the same greed thats making prices on everything go up here all except wages which are now frozen in some companies, and laying off more than hiring. damnable greedy people.

I agree - they always seem to find a reason to raise the gas prices. Our gas in Oklahoma yesterday was $2.45 to $2.55 a gallon. The price often changes on Thursday or Friday from what I've noticed. It may have gone up today?

wasnt out yesterday to se if they jumped or not but over the holiday ours had gone down about 6 cents if they jumped that high gonna hurt bad to go to family reunion the 18th but I have to go might be last time I get to see my mom alive!

Supply and demand, the summer demand goes up and they supply is down, happens every year at this time. However our prices have actually dropped about 10 cents over the past week. I paid yesterday $2.79 a gallon, which to me was pretty good as I have been paying $2.89 to $2.99 for awhile, was a nice surprise to pay less. Here in CA we typically have some of the highest gas prices in the country. I still think it's ridiculous when at the end of the quarter the oil companies will report millions of dollars in profits. I'm all for companies making profits but not to the point of bankrupting us, gas goes up and everything goes up.

i'd have to ask my bro,but i think they went up a bit-mainly due to memorial day weekend greed.

The gas prices seem to know when I am planning a little road trip! BANG, every time.

Yesterday I saw gas lines for the first time since the early 70's! One station was $2.39 and at the other end of the small town it was $2.65. Guess which one had the line? I passed through another small town that had the same thing going on. At one station the line was blocking the road on the side the station was on. Insanity! I have no idea why the prices went up but they don't really need a reason. When you are selling something that nearly everyone needs you don't have to cater to anyone and can charge what you like.

hmmm.. 30 cents in a day seems like an awful lot. I didn't notice, but then my husband put gas in my van yesterday when I was at work so I'm not sure what he paid. I thought it had just gone down a few cents last week though. Maybe the excuse is summer travelers??? Heck, at the rate of the oil spill, we can just go get our oil from the ocean soon... *snort of disgust*

30 cents? thats crazy!! our gas prices actually went down 4 cents

I just filled up last night at $2.41 actually. I'll see the prices later tonight when I venture out. They didn't rise here for the Holiday as expected. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

Ours hasn't gone up. I noticed it this morning, because I thought they had actually gone done a few cents from a couple of days ago.

Hey Rob, The gas has gone down here quite abit probably want last long. It may have gone back up today i haven't been out today.No matter when i fill up it goes down the next day. lol.

Well I didn't even notice that yet here since the last time I got gas was Monday and it was average for around here. I'll probably get gas in a couple of days so I'll have to take notice. The prices always jack up for the summer unfortunately.

im at normal....but the price of oil getting more in value.....
