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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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?

So much for chasing your dreams huh? ;)

It's been hovering between $3.45 and $3.69 for the past month or so where I live. Previously, I drove a diesel Volkswagen Beetle, so I got over 40 mpg and filled up maybe three times a month. Since that car died (RIP, Alejandro) and I bought a gas vehicle (which gets 24 city/34 highway) I fill up twice as many times as I did with my diesel VW. Which really sucks, because diesel lately has only been a few cents more or less than gas prices. Of course that happens when I buy a new vehicle...ugh!!!!

theres like 50 gas vehicles that get well over 40 mpg. you could have easily bougjt one of those.

Easily, you say? And how much are said vehicles? Because seeing as this is the first car I bought on my own and is financed in my name, I kinda wanted to go in the "I'm not going to get in debt before I graduate" route. So thank you for your "wisdom".

And this is exactly why I'm awaiting delivery of my Tesla Model S. No gasoline, no oil. Ever. **** you, oil companies.

Yah! Sadly, I can't afford one. I'll live vicariously through the Doc for a while... You bastard!!!

Instead, your are going to be spending nearly $30,000 every 5 or so years on a new battery pack. I don't see how manufacture and disposal of these toxic batteries is any better for the environment (or wallet) than driving gasoline powers cars.

Can I join you? Sounds like a quest we must go on! Lol. Damn, I wish that was true!

At least your country doesn't rank on the top 10 list for most expensive fuel prices in the world. Mine is in the top 10. Your countries fuel is cheap compared to some places in Europe xD.

Gas is still that price at some places I saw a 2.98 last year around this time...but a dream can become a reality...

gas is only like 3.49 a gallon here. im not gonna waste 3 dollars in gas to save 90 cents. although props on following your dream. i will admit i have ocd and at times compulsively driven to far crazier places.

Small advantage of living so close to the refineries in Texas, gas is only 3.23$/gal last I checked. Granted, I don't own a car so I don't much care; I give my carpool a flat 15$ a week for the 4 days I participate. It works.
