Americans are spending $69 more each month to fill up their tank, according to a Triple A report. CBS Chicago reports: “On Wednesday, the Chicago average is $3.26 per gallon of regular gasoline. The average price is $2.999 for the rest of Illinois, compared to the national average of $2.91.”
“Analysts say Americans are now spending 7% of their income on gas, a statistic that is up 1.5% from last year. If you make $45,000 per year, you’re shelling out over $3,000 just to put gas in your vehicle.”
