Kind of points out that even at a couple bucks a gallon, gasoline is a bargain. I suppose if I had to drive an hour to and from work each day I would care about the price. But as it stands right now, I don't even check the price. Every two weeks I fill up my car and get a can of chew and a pack of smokes. Price varies from around $28 to $35 dollars. Seven bucks difference just doesn't upset me much.

We're at $1.98 in central OH for unleaded regular gasoline. Sure, it's a pain to pay more for something, but some perspective is in order, as you provided, and also listed below:

$6.50/gallon for designer water with a French-sounding name
$5/gallon store-brand orange juice
$3/gallon store-brand milk
$9.50/gallon cheap wine (the kind you can buy by the gallon)
$650/gallon decent champagne
