Donâ€™t' be surprised if you get a case of sticker shock next time you fill your gas tank. The going rate for regular unleaded is about a $1.45 a gallon. And of course you'll pay even more for premium grade.

Less than a week ago, Tulsa bragged the lowest gas prices in the country at around a $1.25. What's unusual is the leap in price is unique to Oklahoma and Kansas.
