The other day regular unleaded was $3.59 here in Superior, WI. Today, it is $3.69; it jumped 10 cents overnight. Ugh! That makes premium $3.99/gallon. I have stopped using Premium now because it is just too expensive. I used to use premium all the time, not anymore.

What happened to your gas allowance you posted about, perhaps some 60 posts ago ??

You didn't seem concerned at that time..

You mean allowance for my delivering? Ha, that's a joke, that barely covers regular gas, and definitely doesn't cover premium. The majority of the time, it figures out to about a quarter per each delivery I take. And I know it costs me more than a quarter in fuel/maintenance to deliver most of the deliveries. Some places treat their employees really good when it comes to fuel costs/maintenance costs, but Jimmy John's ain't one of them. But it's a job and it's how I make my money so I can't really do anything about it.

Or millionaires. I wish gas could be $1.50 like it was when I first started driving. Oh well, nothing I can do about it.

$1.50.............Sunoco gas was .24 cents a gallon when I began legally driving @ 16 yrs old.

I'd like to see those prices again...
