Well I just put 1/2 a tank in the Malibu to fill it up and it cost me 37$. When I first bought the car back in 2003 I could fill it from dead empty for less that that. :o

Heard a rumor that they are predicting gas prices will rise to $1.70/Litre before things level out........ for you Americans that'* $5.45/G

As it is now... I'm paying $1.399 for REGULAR..... so it'* like $1.50 for Supreme at the pumps here today......

School started at the perfect time for me. My last day at work was last Thursday and I came to school on Saturday. This may not seen bad, except that I was driving about 125 miles a day to get to and from work. The Bonne won't be moving for awhile now though.

I just found two other women that work in the same department that I work in that are willing to car pool. We all live within 2 miles from each other. So this is a win-win-win situation for all of us. Change is good. Especially the change you can keep in your pocket!

My Bonne is my daily driver soI guess I'll just have to suck it up and fork out the $$$ for the gas.

Thank God for unlimited overtime.
