Paid $4.34 a gallon this morning.

I only drive back and forth to work and the store, so I don’t go through much gas. Maybe a little less than a 1/2 tank weekly. So instead of costing me the usual $25 a week to fill it back up, it’s costing me around $30.

Local prices are drifting slowly below $4.00/gal.

One week ago, there were only a handful of stations at $3.99, and not a penny lower. Over the past few days, all the “cheap gas” places have dropped below $3.99 – $3.94 is the lowest I’ve seen in the last 24 hours.

The “less cheap” places are still clustered around $4.09 - $4.19/gal, but that won’t last too long.
