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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after completely refilling my almost empty gas tank, I witnessed the price flip from $3.69 per gallon to $3.59. FML
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 realized how boring and sexually deprived my life is when I found a gas station ten cents cheaper than the one I usually use. It gave me both an asthma attack and an erection, simultaneously. FML
Today, I went to the gas station, paid the clerk, and drove off without pumping any gas. FML
Today, I realized that I spend more money on gas to go to my job than what I get paid. 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, 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, 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, I left the house to DoorDash and remembered that I forgot to get gas last night. I had just enough gasoline to make it to Costco for better prices. It wasn’t until I pulled in that I realized I'd left my wallet at home. I have approximately two miles of gas left. FML
Today, I was sitting at home when I remembered that I desperately needed gas for my car. On my way there, I prayed that my car would make it the whole way, and was thankful when I pulled up to the pump, because I knew my car wouldn't go any further. Then I realized I left my wallet at my house. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Not a bad dream!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you are psychic and this was a harbinger of things to come!

Gas here got down to $2.99 in January then mysteriously shot up to $3.75 within a week...

Oh, to have the price of fuel so low. The price difference between the US and the UK is ridiculous! It's like... around a third of the price in the US!

You are aware just how big the U.S. is, right?
Cian_1 28
Yes, and nowhere in the US, is it more expensive than the UK. What I said was an average, but I'm sorry for not finding out the exact difference for every single state... Like you said, the US is big.

You dreamt of gas at $3.38/gallon?!?! What did you do with the massive boner you woke up with?

#63, normally, I'd beat it like it owed me money, but for cheap gas, I'd put on a long winter coat (in Florida in the summer) and fill up my car before the price goes up. Then, I'd go home and beat it like it owed me money!

When I first started driving gas was about $1.30 a gallon... somethin like that. Statistically, the percentage of people in the U.S. carrying a driver's license today vs when I first started driving hasn't increased enough to justify the $2.00+ per gallon increase in price. The demand has increased, but the quantity of oil has not gone down enough (at all) to warrant such a rise in prices. The U.S. has enough oil reserves, at the current rate of consumption, to last nearly 200 years. In 200 years, do you really think we're gonna still be dependent on oil for power? I doubt it. It's all such a big scam it makes me sick. Has prices are going up for Memorial Day, they'll go down slightly afterwards, then watch me skyrocket just in time for summer.

I live in Italy and they doubled the price since the introduction of euro...right now we pay 7,70 euro/gallon (10 dollars/gallon)...and half of the price of a liter are taxes...

Complete and total insanity!!!

There's nothing special about that price. That's what it's been for months maybe even a year where I live. If it was $2.75 or something I would ask for directions.
