If you bought gas in the last week, how much did you pay?

A few days ago, I bought some gas at a 7/11 close to my home. I paid $5.10 per gallon for 87 grade.
This is in Colorado.

I usually drive my older car which gets maybe 25 mpg at best and make my husband drive me to work in our hybrid instead.

That hurt bad enough. it cost me $41.50 to fill up a Subaru. I would hate to be paying over $5 like some people. I'm sure I will be eventually.

My car was on empty.

There are some cheaper options, but those are the sketchy places, where the card skimmers are questionable.

Say about 4 liters per gallon
So, diesel at 95.5 pesos per liter
And 95.5 pesos is about 1.55 dollars
Then 4 times $1.55 is about $6.20 per gallon (diesel)
