Paying £1.35 per litre of Shell V-Power (97 RON) in the United Kingdom right now.
Don't know the math, but i think it's 4.5 ltrs to the gallon, so £6 per gallon, which is like $9.60 per gallon.
Everytime I fill up, my wallet cries, but as soon as I turn the key, I just smile and think, fork it, you only live once, haha

Read an article that this is obviously due to the situation in the middle east, and hopefully over the next few years when things start to stabilize, oil prices should go down.
Once the counties sort their political situations and invest in more modern tech to drill deeper and pump more efficient, then we, the end user should benefit. There is even theories that price per barrel may dip below half of what it is today.

Eat your hearts out!! We're paying $2.72 a gallon for Shell regular for our Silverado and Accord. Haven't bought any gas for the Z lately, but the last time I checked it was around $3.05.
Of course, we're using Shell gas cards we bought at the Publix supermarket with a coupon that gives you $10 off on a $50 card when you buy $25 worth of groceries. We mostly buy stuff that's on special to make up the $25 order, so it works out pretty well. Their specials are usually the same or a little lower than the local WalMart price for the same items, and both stores are conveniently located.

America must get a preferred customer discount with fuel haha because were the leading consumer in the world. Especially in the form or gasoline. If the US would get on the bandwagon with public transportation like Japan and Europe and AUS, our gas would probably be equal in price/gallon to other countries who laugh at us.
