The cheapest here is $3.45. Here's a site that might help:

But it doesn't look like you'll do better than $4.20.

I wonder if someone is trying to tell me something? It was 4:20 when I filled up and I paid $4.20 a gallon for it. . . .

This is just plain rape!

  :rant: Today we participated in a R/C hobby mall show. Hubby flies the gas powered R/C helicopters. A friend and I decided to do some shopping (about 8 hours worth) I realize the economy is bad, but I swear to God, the suggestive sale thing is completely out of control.  :mad: We went to Yankee Candles and the sales girl followed us around continually. If we stopped to look at something, she ran over ,and gave us a line, about why it would be good, to buy this or that. This was done about 8 times. I bought some stuff,and when I checked out, she tried to sell me car air fresheners, room spray, and an economy pack of votives for $15. Jesum Crow!!! Enough already!!!  :mad: It only got worse. We were walking, and got assailed by 3 Russians selling nail buffers.  :spooked: I mean we got ambushed. Two guys ran over, and asked us our names, then proceeded to tell us what our names meant in Russian. Then this chick blindsided my friend. She grabbed my friends hand ,and started buffing her thumbnail, with some buffer/file thingy. I almost shit my pants. I was soooo pissed, because they were forcing themselves on us. Then the chick thought it was my turn. Remember, I was pissed, she started to grab at my hand,and I promptly and very bitchy like told her "Nobody touches my fingernails, so don't even go there." My tone of voice, and the look on my face, must have  scared the shit outta her LMAO!!! She spun on her heels, and said "OK you have a nice day"and took off like a bat outta hell.  :icon_twisted:  I'm a big woman, and I don't have much of a problem, with people pulling crap like that with me. Then we went to Dillard's and a sample lady ambushed us with lotion samples. My God I thought it would never end. Then the dizzy chick at The Original Cookie Company, copped an attitude with me, because I asked how much a dozen of cookies would be. She was sooo stupid I could see the lightbulb in her head burst LMAO!!!  :icon_twisted: I'm never going to the mall again.  :rolleyes:

OMG!!! Did I ever!!!  :rolleyes: I'm not going shopping for a very long time. :no: I realize that they have to suggestive sell, hell I have to do it at my job. I make 1 suggestion ,and move on. People say no,and I let it go. I'm suppose to do it with every order, I do it maybe every 6.  :biggrin: When that chick buffed my friends nail against her will, all I could think of was YUCK how unsanitary. She probably ambushed a hundred people with that nasty azz thing. I didn't say anything about how nasty it was to my friend, because she would've freaked out. She has Turner's Disease, so she's slow,and never thought anything about it I'm sure. I really wanted to stick that buffer thingy up that chick's azz. If she hadn't took off when she did, I just might have done it. LOL!!!!  :icon_twisted:

WTH! I'm glad I don't have to drive. Flash flooding has closed 3 of our major highways all right here where I live!

Wow!!!  :spooked: We went by the Rock River in Davenport, Iowa and they've been having trouble with ice jams, and horrible flooding. They've evacuated the area,and a few days ago, they had to close some of I80, because the water had made it all the way to the interstate.  :spooked:

A friend of mine who lives in New Hampshire can't even get out of her house to go anywhere because their road is washed out and so is a bridge not far from them.  They live out in the boonies so she is stocked up but I imagine she is getting a good case of cabin fever about now.  They have had over 60in of snow and its starting to melt now and thats whats causing the flooding problems there.  A roof collapsed on their neighbors house and their barn collapsed too from all the weight of the snow.

YIKES!!!!  :spooked: It's a good thing she has supplies. I wouldn't want to live right by a river. I mean it would be nice to just walk out the door,and cast a fishing line, but high water and flooding problems have to be considered.  :yes:

I work with a much younger crowd, and have to say that I'm waaaay uncool. I have no idea what some of the lingo they use means.  :spooked: I've never heard some of the stuff these kids say, here are a few words, or phrases I routinely hear at work......

chub.... a chub is a hard on
rubbing off a chub... I think that is self explanatory...  :spooked:
thick.... means fat
phat.... means cool
dope means...cool
crib.... this would be your place of residency
grub.... means good food
sick....means cool
sweet ..... means good

Some of the music the kids listen to is very disturbing too. They listen to a lot of songs with graphic language. Most of it is Rap, and it's always about killing, and beating on women. I can see why these young guys think it's OK to beat their women, because the rappers say it's OK.  :rolleyes: Last Thursday, I was working on my salads,and the day cook was working in his area, listening to a CD. All of a sudden the music stopped, and I heard these gagging and puking sounds. Thinking my coworker was sick, I flew around the corner, and said "Chase are you OK? Are you sick? I heard gagging noises?" He looked at me and grinned and said "Ha, that's a song on my CD!!!" I said, "you have got to be kidding" and he said "No, it really is a CD" I said "that isn't music it's bodily functions." I asked him the name of the song and he said "PUKE" I asked him who sang it, and he said "Emminem"...... 'nough said. I feel real old somedays, and that shows how much the times have changed since I was young LOL!!!  :biggrin:

I'm so very glad I don't have to hear that noise.  mp3 and mp4 players are a god send to my ears. LOL

as for those words you posted. The only one that I hear around the house is 'sweet'.  Well I hear phat too, but I think it's really fat, because my daughter isn't saying anyone is cool when she says it. LOL

  :rant: Today, I paid $3.36 a gallon for gas.  :mad: Hell, it isn't worth me driving to work. Today, I only worked for 2 1/2 hours. I spent $6 for gas, and bought some chicken to take home. I pretty much went in the hole today, and some of tomorrow's hours  too.  :rolleyes:
