How much has gas increased for you?

Since Hurricane Katrina hit, obviously everyone is getting higher prices. I was curious as to how much the price has raised for you guys. When 911 hit people were raising prices here when there was no need, and i get the feeling they are doing it again...so post where you are and how much prices have increased

Wichita, KS = 60 cents a gallon

About a 40 cent increase in the Waco, TX area and I guessing it's still going to go up.

Damn John. Waco, TX is about even with San Diego, CA. Normally SO Cali is higher than Central Texas.

I put $35.00 worth of Premium in my car the other day and didn't even get 1/2 a tank!!!! I love the big gas tank in the 280ZX for long road trips... but paying to fill it up is a beeyotch.

Just paid $3.28 for premium here today... supposed to jump way up again in the next couple of days. Sonsabiscuits are talking about it getting up to five bucks a gallon. Let's see here... 21.9 gallon tank x 5.00 = over a hundred gawd-damned dollars to fill up!!!! Time to get the legs back in shape and start riding a bicycle.

I so wish we could get good gas in California. 91 is our highest grade unless you want to buy racing fuel for 11 bucks a gallon. That's about the only thing I miss about living in Florida... being able to buy 93.
