Carbondale Bytelife

Gas in Illinois runs about $2.14 per gallon, which is the lowest price since sometime in 2005. According to WSIU-FM this morning, it never got that low during all of 2006. Travelling around town this morning, I saw Carbondale prices running from a low of $2.04 a gallon at Wal-Mart and Marathon ($2.03 if you've got a Kroger card) to $2.13 at Shell. With gas $1.84 a gallon at Cape Girardeau yesterday, it's almost worth driving the 40+ miles to fill up your tank.
