I paid $2.44/gallon yesterday a few blocks from the house.
$2.35/gallon in Miami.
I think $2.50 will be the resistence number -- that seems to hold some real psychological barrier. Oil is just under $54/barrel and Opec said they would ramp up production. Personally, I think it will hover around $2.50/gallon for 3-4 months before it starts to drop -- indifferent to the price of a barrel.
There are things that higher gas prices curb -- like discretionary spending. One might consider site memberships to be discretionary spending.
