While we're at it let's boycott them for a day.. yeah that's it.. I'm sure it will work! /sar
Those "rise like a rocket, drop like a feather" prices would go down a lot quicker if more people used this site.
A well intentioned idea - in theory. Geographically though, I'd have to drive about 20 miles one way though city traffic to save $.10/gal. That means on a 10 gallon fill up in my car that gets about 30 MPG I'll be spending about $4 to save $1. And giving up at least an hour of my life for the privilege. As hard as that is to pass up, I'll just stick to filling up locally, thanks.
I was on the road yesterday and I saw gasoline prices ranging from a low of $2.60 to a high of $2.84 per gallon. This was along a stretch of about 230 miles
Prices hovering arounf 2.55 in my area. Economy starting to wake up. I was troubled to see my area die in a week from high prices. I've already lost two accounts based on backlash of high energy prices.
I am concerned the US government will not allow new refineries, or ANWR/Florida/California drilling and Utah extraction. Seems the short-term futures market is also concerned with refined products absent from the market. Time to put pressure on congress for our national survival. http://www.bloomberg.com/markets/commodities/energyprices.html
