I find it crazy that gas prices recently just went up another 7.7 cents in a matter of a week for us! It's rediculous that on Long Island we have the highest averages for gasoline nationally! These extreme numbers are preventing some individuals from travelling as they want or need. This is very upsetting especially because it is currently the holiday season. Prices tend to be so high in our region due to our skyrocketing taxes and real estate costs. It was just surveyed that we pay around $3.2 for each gallon of regular gas. For some people to pay this daily just to get from one place to the next really adds up! We have almost reached our highest prices yet since 2008. Hopefully we don't make a new record to even get higher in the years to come!
