In my area of NY on average it is running $3.47 a gallon for regular unleaded. I saw one place tonight that had it at $3.59 but their premium was up to $3.89. Ouch.

In central Mass its 3.21 for regular but I have a hunch will be going up today because 2 other stations near that one were 3.43 for regular and Diesel is 4.07 at a local Hess and about 4.21 elsewhere.

I wish. I own a small electrical contracting business and both trucks had to be filled yesterday. It hurt....real bad. The tough part is youhave to absorb a lot of the cost. You can pass some on to the customer, but you still have to remain competitive.
