Diesel was like $4.13 or something like that.

This was a local gas station here in NorCal.

In January I paid about $4.19 a gallon for road fuel at the J in Mississauga. I hate to think what it is now!

Going to get groceries tomorrow, and wonder how much a sack cost now. :angryblue:

I heard today, for the first time in 50-sum years, prices are going up on everything.
Use to be, only a few things would rise in price.

Inflation is here, even though no one wants to say it out loud, and the dollar is shrinking.
We trade everything on the global market... and lots of countries are having food shortages, right now.

I needed some D2 for my pick up so I wheeled into a Hess and almost fell over $4.97!! and then I looked closer and saw some wiseass had changed it from 3.97, at that point it seemed like a good deal.
