San Diego residents at a local 7-Eleven spoke to FOX News Digital about how rising gas prices, have been affecting their lives.
“Filling this thing up, [it’s] like $130,” said one resident, who explained his full gas typically only lasts him about a week. Another resident, who explained how gas for the roofing company trucks is a “lot of money,” described how he pays between $100-$150 to fill up his gas tank.

Cal this morning oceanside 5.99
Sorry to hear that. Been to Oceanside, lovely city, great wine bars.

Life will be better for everyone and gas would be cheaper if we all used the same type of gas.
5.99 regular this morning in Oceanside.

I get free medium fries twice a week using deals on the app and just about every other McChicken sandwich I get is free using app points as well. I agree: people who don’t make use of app discounts get scalped (at other quick service chains as well).
