New job. Gotta buy gas every 3-4 days. I try and go where it is most convenient and don't really drive out of the way to get it. You just tend to burn what you are saving when you drive out of the way.

I was in Rockville/Gaithersburg yesterday afternoon, and I saw on Rt 28 gas at several places between 3.97 and 4.01.
