High Gas Prices - what are you doing to avoid them?
I don't know about most of you here, but I know the high gas prices are definitely putting a hole in my wallet. I've found Allstate's gas widget to be pretty great at finding cheap gas and diesel prices - Gas Price Locator - Allstate.

Got an Android phone? Even if you don't, try GasBuddy.com
As far as avoiding high fuel prices? I can't get anything done without driving. So, I'm not trying to avoid them. It is what it is, and until we get rid of the enviro-whackos and the current anti-anything-but-alternative-energy regime, we're stuck with 'em.

Yeah, Allstate's widget is powered by GasBuddy - how i found it :]
Seriously - I'm in the same boat. I commute at least 70 miles per day and unless I want to take multiple bus routes and an additional 2 hours in the mornings/evenings, I've got no choice but to drive.

Fortunately I live only about a mile from work. I also use gas buddy on my iPhone. Around the city I get about 11 mpg and on the highway driving 70 I'm getting about 17. I really have to just slow down to get the better mpg. 2011 GMC Sierra Crew cab 4x4 with a 6.2 l gas engine

I have had to cut our family camping trips in half this year. It is getting too expensive to pull our 5th wheel around. It is what it is though. I new that I was not going to be making any friends in the enviro groups but 8.2 mpg towing sucks. I also accelerate slower than i used to, and i don't speed any more.
