    Had to take a spare PC to a sattelite center this morning in South Carolina. As I got closer, the price of gasoline dropped sharply... USD $1.86 / gallon! And this after I had to fill up last night at USD $2.01 / gallon... How are gas prices where you are? Tim

    Using a litre to US gallon conversion, and xe.com for the currency conversion, standard unleaded petrol/gas at my local garage is $7.06 per gallon.

      2.15 - 2.30 in the Atlanta/Smyrna/Marietta region. I always manage to fill up when the price is at its highest. Sort of like a destiny :sigh:

              It is still cheaper than public transport. Just. But unlike the busses I can get to work in 50 minutes instead of a seven hour round trip. :doh: You just get used to paying that much - I factor in two days pay each month just to pay for getting to the office.

                      2.01 at one location, the rest should follow... the others were still at 2.09 this morning.

                              They've come down off their highs of earlier in the year and it now costs $6.51 per US Gallon where I am.

                                :wtf: What's the local garage rate (in p/l)? I just worked out what I pay for unleaded 89p/l at Tesco and it comes out to $6.54 / gallon. [edit]Just realised how strong £ is so even 1 or 2p will make a big difference.[/edit]


                                I have no idea what I just said. But my intentions were sincere.
