Price of gas where you live

Here in mid-Michigan the price of gas has jumped to $1.89 for regular. What's it like where you live? Has it jumped for this last long week-end of the summer?

Cheapest price for regular by me is $1.64, averages around $1.70 Hard to believe that on New Year's Eve of 2001 we could get it for $.89.9!!! Ah well, dems were da days...

Boston - north suburbs cheapest is about $1.80. Just returned from San Diego a week ago and paid over $2. It is likely more now.

I just filled up for lunch and got a lot of gas for free.
Went to Fuddrucker's and had the 2/3# burger with jalapeno cheese, onions, salsa with a side of fries with a "tad" of said cheese and addtl jalapenos.
Atkins who?

Oh....gas for the car?
Nevermind.
