For me, No, but then again the "rising gas prices" are more of a USA phenomenon - it's been over a buck a litre here for a while, and while it's been going up some, it was already high <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> - but for me it really comes down to the time to go is more hard to come by than the money right now - so by the time I can go, I just spend what it takes on the gas - I'll carpool/bus/bike to work instead.

The only time I suppose I really get bitter about it was like this weekend, when I ended up
being forced to bail out early on, and so spent about 80 bucks on gas for what amounted to a lot of driving and not a lot of being out <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
