Grrr...

All of last week, gasoline prices near my office were $3.039 per gallon. Fortunately, I didn't need to fill up at that time.

Yesterday, I noticed it was $2.939 and there was enough bird crap on the roof of my car to affect its aerodynamics so I topped off the tank and washed off the worst of it.

This morning, the price has jumped to $2.999. I'm sure the rate increase has nothing to do with the approaching weekend...

Ironically, BEFORE the July 4th holiday, our prices averaged 2.79 per gallon. I was able to use my .40 Giant Eagle grocery savings and filled up for 2.39 before heading south. Unfortunately, sticker shock hit this week as the price has consistently been 3.19 every day of the week - ugh!

Can a rise in air fares be far behind? :-(

It already happened - this week too! But, typically, they'll drop again, briefly, around the middle to end of the month.
Why, where are you planning on flying off to?

We still have to purchase our tickets to go west to terrorize tdjohnsn and rlegters (and cats) this fall (http://www.iagsdc.org/puddletown/halloween07/).

At least the tickets for Canada and Cleveland in August are already purchased.
