The most fuel I've ever put in at once was about 19.7 gallons, but it only cost like $45 back when that occurred. Those were the days

I can remember when I first got my car I could put in 15-16 gallons and have it cost less than $30! (fuel was like $1.40-1.55 or so) Insane.

My most expensive fillup yet has been about $64.60 for 16.7 gallons or so. My most expensive yet will be yet to come. As the fillup I just mentioned was 2.2 weeks ago at $3.85! Now the prices are ALL $4.19....so I'll be over the $70 mark come this Saturday (when I will have to fill up with about 17-18 gallons)

Overall it hasn't been hurting that much. Me and my lovely have simply been staying home more and watching movies with my projector/screen at home rather than going out to the movies....and we make fun meals ourselves nearly always instead of going out once every couple weeks. Minor cuts (that don't really affect us) have been getting us by/balanced just fine....and neither of us (students) make very much money. When I graduate in a couple months the fuel cost issue will become even more minimal if I can find a good job....
