Yesterday it was $3.52 where I live, $3.65 at work. Not too bad, considering a couple months ago it was a dollar more.

Yeah, I don't fill up either. I usually put 5-6 gallons in [about 20-25]. It takes me just to the half full or just past the half full mark; lasts me a couple days.

I am dumb low on gas. I have off tomorrow, so I won't be using my car- I'll fill up Friday. I'm excited because how it's like a $1+ cheaper than a few weeks ago.
