Gas prices in the UK are so high right now but occasionally there's cut price mondays which are useful.

Actually, it's a relief to see that gas prices are pretty similar to what they were in 2007! Last night I filled up at $2.99 per gallon.

Oil prices have dropped over the past few days which is quite good news. That should hopefully bring down the petrol prices by a bit in the UK. The current prices we're paying is just absurd!

Still seems rather high, though I wish it was still 30 cents a gallon like in that one song

Thinking about my previous post, I guess these companies are so greedy that the lower oil prices probably wouldn't impact the prices at all. They'll probably keep the prices the same and fleece us.

Gas prices just keep going up around here. Which is rough since it's around a 30 minute drive to get to any sizable city if you need anything... Stuff like this makes me wish we had decent public transport, or that I lived in an area where I could actually walk to the store without any trouble.

Hopefully, with many governments now focusing a bit more on climate change, the public transport systems get a huge improvement. But that may take a long time unfortunately

It's around $3.50 where I'm at right now. I miss those good old days of $2 a gallon! It's still okay since I don't drive too often but when I go on any trips it's a nightmare to add that into the budget.

It was $6.50 a gallon here in California for a while, now its about $5.79 (which is still insane)!

Hopefully not much more, the world should stabilize soon on gas I hope.

We've had some reports of petrol prices dropping by quite a bit in some petrol stations. Hoping that it becomes widespread quickly and it spreads to the nearby petrol stations too. Still set at stupid prices but a bit better than it was before

I heard some gas stations in my town sell gas slightly cheaper, I may have to do some hunting and remapping my routes to take advantage of them.

Do you have guys have a law that stops petrol stations from putting their price too low compared to nearby stores?

I know it's done to stop big companies pushing the price down temporarily to destroy smaller, independent petrol stations but all it does is make it expensive for consumers. They really need to rethink stuff like that

I'm dumping my local grocery store gas station, drove past a small place that was 1.10 cheaper.

Filled up at $4.18 yesterday so its gradually getting better. I'm honestly just waiting for it to spike back up again at this point.

I hope it keeps getting better, no reason for gas to spike so high.

Price fell by a few pence right after I filled up a few days ago. Doesn't make a huge difference but it's still quite annoying lol

Well, at least they are starting to come down again . Although, since I no longer have a car, I guess I won't have to worry about them for a while... hopefully they won't go back up again by the time I get a new one!

Gas has been falling a lot, thank goodness, I don't feel as bad driving now.
