Good thing I dont have far to get to work but it's making it almost impossible for me to see my family in PA as much as I would like to.

$2.89 here...trying not to fill up unless I really have to...which means I'll fill up before heading home and once on the way back and hopefully not for a while after that cuz my car will be parked to keep the compressor from getting screwed up with my broken radiator fan :\

Then you'd have to deal with an evil dictator (Chavez) and lots of folks that hate Americans. But at least you'd save a ton of money!

Last night I filled up and it was 3.09 at Tom Thumb but with the little card thingy I got 3cents off so I filled up for about 39.00. But get this I go shopping inside the store and I spent about 60.00 and my next fill up I get 6cents off per tank so I guess it works out using those stupid little cards.
