Here in New Brunswick we are around $5.20 per US gallon for gas.
We're trimming back what we spend while on trips. Making more meals etc, instead of occasional restaurants while touring. We'll take no service sites. Window shopping instead of actual shopping. It all adds up. Gotta keep money for fuel. I'll cut the "other" spending before I cut the trips. And, we go a little slower in the van. The Scan Gauge, with the MPG visible on the screen is a motivator. High fuel prices must be a big drain on the economy.
It's a record, though just barely. The price of gasoline hit an all-time average high in California of $4.6140 a gallon Saturday, fueled by a reduced supply and a volatile market.
Prices throughout the state were expected to increase for several more days before levelling off, after a temporary reduction in supply triggered a price spike that saw fuming motorists paying $5 or more per gallon in some locations and station owners shutting down pumps in others.
