Can I ask where in NOVA you are? I grew up in Reston and my inlaws are in Woodbridge.

[thewop]

I honestly don't remember. That's how often I get gas when I'm not working. Lol. Right now it's $2.04 in west Michigan. I still have 1/2 tank though. I might fill up today if it stays at that price when I go out.

[ars093s]

$2.89 in SoCal. Can't believe we're finally under $3/gallon.

Oh, cool. Reston changed it's name yesterday to Hill Valley and did a HUGE Back to the Future thing!

I'm out in the country in western Loudoun county. We used to live next to Reston, in Herndon.

[gingerygirl]

1.89 in central Virginia

[htuzzi324]

$1.85 in Texas. And I had gas points so I really got it for $1.25.

I lived in Herndon for a couple years when I was in foster care.

Just outside of Toronto I'm paying like 98c/liter which is $3.00 a gallon

Can I piggyback and ask what you all pay per month on gas?

We usually spend about $500-550.

That's soo much!

$250-300 a month for us when I'm working too. although I've driven a lot while on leave

[elvenqueen]

£1.30/litre (approx $7/gallon USD or $2.65/litre CAD) in East of England.

For a minute there I thought gas was waaaay more expensive in the States than it is here, until I saw @piedpiper07's post and realised those prices were /gallon! Yep. Freaking expensive here.


ETA: I think my math is right, but no guarantees.

When dh was working, we were spending like $150-200/m.
Now I try to keep it under $50.

$250 probably. The h and I live close to jobs/family/stores/restaurants.

[incir]

My husband was the last one to fill the car but I'm pretty sure I just saw $2.13 here is the Bostob burbs. We live walking distance to a commuter rail my husband takes to work and only have one car so we only spend about $60 a month on gas at the current price.

Holy! I wish. We only have one car, but every day DH goes to school, he uses 1/4 tank. I walk everywhere in town (groceries, mail, preschool, etc), but not much can be done about his commute (and mine when I return to work).

Gas points from the grocery store are the way to go. Once a month our Kroger has double points weekend. That's when I make my big shopping trip. I usually end up with .60 off per gallon by the end of the month.

We're neighbors!  I'm in Fairfax.

I think I just paid $2.10 or so. 

[misstunes]

South eastern Mass here, about $2.10.

I fill up once a week when working and dh fills every 2 days so we are probably around $125 a week and $500 a month

We pay about 130 a month on gas. Which I see now is pretty good....don't ask how much we spend on food

[ampaints]

$2.04 in Atlanta suburb. H and I spend about $250-$300 a month.

[girlonabike]

It's $2.19 at the station I go to on the Eastern Shore in MD.

I have no idea how much per month I end up spending--this is my first month regularly commuting in a car.....ever. I always rode my bike (so I spent $0, ha!). I drive about 90 miles per day, 5x a week tho. And that's just my commute. My husband now commutes about 100 miles a day, 5x a week.

[elizabethnevadap]

2-something a gallon, I'm never quite sure because hubs has an unlimited gas card through work, works at any gas station.
I'd say that's a perk! We treat that thing like gold.

[DSHM13]

$2.10 I think in MD.

[nimfalen]

$1.92 in not quite northern Virginia

[2dumbdogs]

1.95in south Texas on Tuesday.

[abvintage]

$2.39 Northern Utah.
