I live  in Las Vegas , Nevada and  paid  $4.19/gal. regular gasoline today June 14,2008. 
It does not seem to matter anymore where you go  gasoline is  very costly.  I paid  $1.69  a pound for  red delicious apples, and  the  goldens  are  $1.99 a pound. Bananas used to always be  under  50 cents a pound, today they are  .79  lb. 
 
The cost of  living  every day  keeps going up.
