Today, after completely refilling my almost empty gas tank, I witnessed the price flip from $3.69 per gallon to $3.59. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I pulled into the gas station to fill up only to realize I had forgot my wallet. By the time I went home, got it, and came back, the price had gone up eleven cents. FML
Today, I awoke from a dream that I'd found an Arco gas station that had regular gas for $3.38. I actually went looking for it. FML
Today, while working at a gas station, I accidentally changed the price of gas to 8.9 cents per litre. It took me fifteen minutes to figure out why everyone wanted only two or three dollars of gas. I fixed it, but now my managers are debating charging me for lost revenue. FML
Today, I went to the gas station, paid the clerk, and drove off without pumping any gas. FML
Today, I stopped at the gas station to fill up my tank and get some snacks. I paid the cashier, then got back into my car, totally forgetting to pump the $50 worth of fuel I'd just prepaid for. Too bad I didn't realize until my car came to a sputtering stop about a mile down the road. FML
Today, I replaced the fog lights on my car and completely filled my gas tank. $50+ later, the transmission decided it wanted to go out. FML
Today, I realized that I spend more money on gas to go to my job than what I get paid. FML
Today, my wife and I were driving to the gas station, she let me out before she pulled up to the pumps because I had to buy some things from the store. I returned to see my wife proudly filling the tank. Smiling, she told me that diesel was cheaper than regular gas. We don't own a diesel car. FML
Today, when paying for gas, I realized I'd forgotten my wallet back home. After a moment of panic, I managed to remember my card number. I paid, blowing the cute cashier's mind, and drove away, before my car started sputtering and slowed to a crawl. I'd used the wrong fuel. FML
Today, in an effort to conserve gas by using as much of the gas in my tank before refilling it, I ran out just before I could get to the gas station. Nobody can come bring me any. FML

Erm, you need more than 5 gallons to fill a tank. And every little bit counts.

2- You're an idiot. It takes waay more than 5 gallons to fill a tank. And gas is expensive as **** so every saving counts! Edit: Dang you beat me to it. We said almost exact same thing.

$3.59? That's cheap! It's about $4 here : Every penny counts
onlychildFTW 34
3.59, 3.69 all cheap. Try gassing up at 1.35/L or 5.40/gallon. Then come crying about it

I burn a full tank every day, 10 cents on a 30 gallon tank, 3 bucks. No big deal.

I wish I could pay 3.59 try 4.09 in ct if you use cash if you used credit it's 4.13!!!

17 - $4.15 in Cromwell, CT this morning. WITH cash. More for credit. I hate how they can do that. The cost of using a credit card versus the cost of having to pay an extra person to take care of the cash from the gas should balance out.

In this economy, I'm not surprised this happened at all... Lol. Gas station: 1 you: 0

Gas prices are an FML to all of us.

Maybe you did something to the gas station cashier? Think about it...wasn't that you who clogged the toilet?
walmartpaysme 15
Right... Because the gas station cashier has the power to change the gas prices at will.

27 I'm pretty sure it was a joke. I don't blame you, Walmart makes me uptight too.

Least the price dropped 10 cents.
walmartpaysme 15
Yes, but by the time OP needs gas again it will probably have gone up by 20 cents.

Whoa what? Gas prices drop? What world is this!

Sometimes I think I need a second job just to fill up my gas tank to get to the first job.

Do you have any idea how much gas it takes to time travel?! Neither do I...

As we saw at the end of the second movie... It runs on compost.

$3.59! It's $4.29 where I live!
EnterSandman_fml 20
I know what you mean dude. It's $4.24 where I am in CT, yet a 20 minute drive up to MA yields $3.89 a gallon for Shell. I'd be thrilled to see $3.69 even, let alone $3.59.

Yay Connecticut people! Me too! :D *high fives*

$4.98 in Canada (in $US)

It's actually lower in the interior, as they use the cheap Canadian stuff.

That's freaking ridiculous up in CA and flipping ridiculous it's gotten out of hand like this!! DRILL IN ALASKA ALREADY!! Then we can be prepared in 5 years...or better yet we could have been prepared now had they done this 5-10 years ago!
