Wow - I was looking at the earlier posts (not noticing the dates) and wanting to scream! I paid $4.149 at the 76 station closest to my house a couple of days ago. Really makes me glad that I'm not filling up the tank of my old SUV at 25 gallons per fillup.....

Just filled up yesterday @ $3.99/gal, $52.13 to fill the tank just over 13 gal. w/ Shell VPower 93

I guess that's what you get when crude goes to $123 + a barrel....

Just Paid $4.09/gallon 91 Octane at a Shell in Fullerton a few moments ago. Fortunately, I have yet to break the $50 mark on a fillup. Always very close--usually $49.79 or something like that. Sad I do this fillup 3 times a week though. Found a place that sells 92 a few blocks from the shop, price is the same as 91.

Sucks, doesn't it? Almost the same here.

BTW, that works out to about $5.15 per American Gallon.
