The price for a gallon of gas has hit the $3.30 mark here in Washington Parish. Went up .33 since last weekend.

It aint high enough...... Maybe we can get it to 5.50 a gallon and keep the democrats from voting this time around...... Then may be we can get a true American in the white house in stead of a Muslim...

its better than $6 or $7 they're paying everywhere else in the world! but it also sucks because we shouldn't be depending on foreign countries for oil, WE HAD A ENDLESS AMOUNT spilling in our gulf, there is no shortage!!! but we are paying $3, I DON'T UNDERSTAND!

I'm really not concerned with what folks are paying everywhere else in the world. I probably don't average burning a tank of gas a week but it still pisses me off to no end.

I drive from Hammond to baton rouge Monday through Friday and sometimes even Saturday and Sunday and since 3 weeks ago I went from averagely spending 90 on gas to about 130 and I thought 90 was bad

I usually fill up twice a week, one tank to get back and forth to work and one tank for the weekend of fishing and driving around. that will cost me $175 when gas gets up to $3.50 a gal if I keep the same driving habits, I guess I'll be limiting my driving.

GEEZ!

My daughter will hop in her car and drive to Hammond, Hattiesburg, Slidell or New Orleans just to eat supper. Then, she complains about the gas prices. I remind her that, with her BS driving, she is doing her part to assure that the prices will continue to rise.

Over the last 20 years....gas per gallan is one of the lowest inflation products over all.... Milk and water have inflated more than gas

Louisiana and Texas need to add a state export tax to every gallon of refined petroleum transported out their states! And the same needs to be added to each MCF of natural gas that moves through pipelines under our soil!!
The the bazkrids would think long and hard about exploration off their precious coasts!!!

the market should correct itself, all the tension in the middle east is causing it.

This is what I find to be the most ridiculous thing. Back in DFW, beer, tobacco and lottery are more expensive, but we pay $0.99 for a gallon of milk. Here, its 4 bucks.

Comparison
LA TX
Marlboro lights ~4 ~7
Budweiser 16oz 6pk ~5 ~7.50
Copenhagen ~2 ~4.75
Milk 4 .99

Doesn't make sense. Shouldn't things that keep you alive and healthy be cheaper??
