back in 86 gas was around .77 .79 cents a gallon
back in 96 gas was around 1.09 or 1.19 a gallon
back in 2006 gas was up to 2.89 for super
and now in 2007 i am forced to pay 3.08 and climbing.

i thought about picking up a dozen jars of ky.
put a little note on it and leave it at the pump for the next person.

I think it was .79 when I started... I'm not sure. It's been a while. Besides, back then my dad had a tab at the store and I'd just pump and sign... Wow, does anyone know of any stores that still have tabs???

I don't think I'm that old, but I remember when gas was $.29/gal. Also, when I was in elementary school, lunch was $.35.....chocolate milk was $.06 and white milk was a nickel.
