Default $2.88 for gas....

While driving back to Ga. from Summerville, I stopped in Walterboro at a Velero (sp?) gas station. Well the sign said Unleaded was $2.89, but the pump's digital readout said $2.88.

I thought that was awesome because I got off on Exit 94 in Ga. (took me two hours to get there today due to a wreck) the gas prices at that gas station was $3.66. I couldn't believe it.

It's great to see the prices drop, but I couldn't believe the difference.

Perspective. Who would have thought we'd be thrilled with $3.00 gas?

I remember my mother getting pissed when the gas got to $2.20.

Now we're glad it's $2.80... Huh.

We're not- we're thrilled with gas continuing to drop from 3.00 downward.

I just think it's crazy how much of a difference gas prices are from state to state. I know on the East coast, South Carolina has the cheapest and Connecticut/NY has the most expensive.

I just would like to pay the same amount for a gallon of gas in Jacksonville that I would pay in Columbia.

it's unfortunately a reflection of the economy, and not only ours but China and India, they are not requiring the fuel they once were. Does help my pocket though.
