Across Wisconsin, gas prices soar past $4

1. Up about 15 cents here in StL yesterday now at $3.99

I was able to get in under the wire and fill up at $3.85. Thankfully my 2008 Yaris gets 40+ mpg. It still hurts, but the 5 - 6 gallons I use each week are far less than what I was using in my 98 Ranger.

2. The annual spring squeeze is on, add to that

it's now Scott Walker's 'business' friendly environment. Gouging isn't going to be taxed as heavily here so it makes sense this state should be pushed hard by spiking prices.
