As you may have seen on your evening news a few weeks ago, Nashville is on the tail end of a gas shortage, and we're still paying $3.35, but they say it'll be under $3 very soon...

I might suggest heading into downtown Waterbury - if you dare...

Here in Groton, it's almost worth it for us to go to Rhose Island - as their gas is always .15 to .20 cheaper.
