in michigan and was $3.80 there i fill up as much as i can when i find a good price . i get a little bit here and there because it s all i can afford week to week drivers are feeling the pinch . the average is $3.90 per gallon there was a record high price of $4.87 a gallon that compares with $3.85 last year the last record was set in may of last year at $4.45 a gallon the lower emissions summer blend of gasoline switch is on and that is partly responsible for the price increases what it costs to fill up here in the city is maddening it s gotten too expensive are your regretting your s u v it is good to have this kind of car eco comes down to oil prices and the switchover to the summer blend of gasoline when typically the prices go up during that transition and that s what s happening here the airline industry is also affected southwest airlines just announced plans to raise ticket prices anywhere from $4-$10 per ticket . you can expect other airlines will follow suit
