What Insane/Crazy Price did You Pay Today?

[lman]

Since I am Tesla driver I don't give too much about gas prices

But y-day was time to refill tractor...

Friend of mine have developed strategy, how to fill car those times.
Just enjoy automatic payment.
Swipe card on reader, put "gun" in tank and let it run. Without looking on counter.
It's OK, if you cry at this moment. Few tears doesn't mean you are weak or broke.
Just wait the click, put gun back, head still down, without looking on figures. Just jump in car and leave ASAP. Dont look back, don't think about that


As I am talking only about CUT, I allowed to hurt myself a little and I break those rules. I was looking on figures.
For tractor's diesel I have 10 Liters can.... To make it full takes 20.4 €

Don't they have electric tractors over there?

I live like near 30 miles east of Naples , Fl very near you might say on the sw side of lower Fla where the everglades start . Was in Naples last week , felt like lunch so decided to try a Maine theme like lobster roll joint called My---c Lobster . Ordered a lobster roll and a bottle of water . I almost fell over when it arrived it was on like an 8" hoagie type bread with lobster meat , and the smallest little plastic cup of coleslaw you ever saw . I swear . I didnt think the lobster was even that tasty . I felt like I got screwed good . This little "sample" was $25 . Not includeing tip . Never again not even for free will I go there . Oh did I tell you's I left there "hungry " . Run from Myst-c Lobster ! ..........

I hate when that happens! It's why I stick to the places I go to to eat.

Price of diesel hits all-time high, straining the trucking industry

The price of diesel hit an all-time high in the United States this week as energy markets around the world cope with ongoing disruptions amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Was this supposed to be actual Maine lobster, or the local variant? If the former, I don't know why you are surprised. Getting lobsters shipped from Maine to Florida these days can't be cheap, if it ever was. Couple that with the establishment probably having to pay higher wages just to keep enough people to keep the place open, and you have the reason. While many businesses are swallowing as much of the added costs as they can, they just can't swallow all of them and survive.

Personally, I never eat lobster anyway, and I live a lot closer to Maine than you do. Too expensive for what it is. Always has been. Same thing for crab legs.

TJ suppose to be actual Maine lobster . I agree totally with your post . Just in pics of what one is suppose to get , etc they make it look bigger , etc . From the time I recieved my lunch and gobbled it down I musta been out of there in like nine minutes or less . I even felt like the employee's there knew it was a ripp off . Just won't ever return .

Btw way I know Maine well , Jackman , Rangley lakes region , Phillips , Rumford , Bar Harbor , and then some . I was just shareing my experience others may vary , lol .

I also only named the place because other places were named in this thread before I posted . Personally on a long term thing it would surprise me if that establishment will stay open long after there lease expires .

Let’s not go political, then you went there.

Was trying to be apolitical, by bluntly stating current facts and how presidents of either party dont control fuel prices. You labeling my reply as politcal really only shows your partisan bias while reading it, haha. I don't support either party and didn't certainly intend my message as such.

Anyway. You know what else is expensive right now? Gravel. Up 20-30% this year, seems like. Much of that is probably due to diesel prices.

My wife tracks our grocery bill on one credit card.
It is up 30% or so in the last 2 years, some items up over 50%.

As for blaming the war in Ukraine for the rise in gas/diesel , that is pure propaganda.

The prices went up before the war started and have only increased a bit since the war started.
One Oil guy (not a news bobble head) said even with cutting off all oil from russia, it would take 3 months for that to ripple through the supply line.

The Government does control oil pricing to some degree, since they can change supply routes and how much is held in reserve. We have reserves all over the US and Mexico. These reserves were increasing before the war leading to less in the supply chain.

The news feeds can't even spell or grammar check anymore.
