Gas prices are $3.25/gallon here for premium. I usually buy the plus, which is usually $.10/gallon cheaper. Still makes it $45 to fill up my car. Unfortunately, I commute 25 miles one way to work. Have to get there somehow. Not sure if there's a bus line that connects the two cities. Will check into that. My husband drives all over the place for his job. self-employed. with a truck. I think it's $60-$70 to fill up his truck. It's definitely affecting us.

Frankly, I'd be surprised if we ever see anything below $2.50 again. Even before the hurricane crisis, they were talking about the production in Iraq, Saudi, etc .... being down and probably wouldn't reach their high production again. It's not a never ending supply. I wish there were more alternatives to choose from. We here in the U.S. are slow in accepting anything else.
