Ouch! I'm sorry. That sucks. I know here in the US we complain, but knowing that over seas where you and others are you pay a whole lot more.

Nation's gasoline prices at a record

August 14, 2006

CAMARILLO – Nationwide gasoline prices hit another record in the past three weeks, rising over 1 cent to nearly $3.03 per gallon.

The national average for self-serve regular stood at $3.025 a gallon Friday, up 1.06 cents since July 21, according to the Lundberg Survey of 7,000 gas stations across the country released yesterday. The previous high of $3.015 was set in July, analyst Trilby Lundberg said. A gallon of mid-grade gasoline averaged around $3.13, and premium averaged $3.23.

Nationwide, the lowest price for regular was $2.82 a gallon in Charleston, S.C., while the highest – $3.29 a gallon – was in Chicago. Among California cities surveyed, the lowest price was in Sacramento, about $3.05 a gallon for regular, Lundberg said, while the highest was $3.24 in San Diego.
