It doesn't look like gas prices are going down anytime soon and that means you'll have to stretch your dollar a little while longer.
John and Linda Robinson live in Saraland.
They told News Five that they had to sell one of their cars because they couldn't afford to pay for gas and the insurance.
They say because of the high gas prices, they only travel within three miles from their home.
When they do fill up their car, they have to make sure the gas will last a month.
"We have to stay home and most of the time the car stay's parked right where it's at. I limit the times that I have to go to the grocery store and I go to church and just to the doctor's and that's about the only trips that we make," said Linda Robinson of Saraland.
Gas prices across Alabama hit another high Thursday morning - rising to $3.93 a gallon.

Hey MREMANN83! The camera adds more than 10 pounds, I am not that fat. I exercise, bike, do the tread mill thing or jog every day. look at kesshia’s picture and on the video, She looks much bigger in them than in person, she’s tiny in person. I guess I can’t dodge the question any longer, Yep Mremann83 that’s me in all my glory and about 25 pounds over 200 which is my target.
