In Tennessee, the number is 54 cents per gallon.

Prices at the pump have climbed 23 cents nationwide over the course of the week despite efforts by several governments to quell the rise in oil.
Friday's prices, up 11 cents from Thursday, marked the single largest day increase, since 2016, according to AAA data.

I went into town the other day and saw a 9 cent increase from the day before. Holy shit.
After returning home, I realized I had forgotten to pick up a prescription for Lisa, so I did a few things around here, then headed back into town about 5 hours later to pick that up.
In that 5 hour period, gas had gone up another 26 cents. FIVE hours.....
