Our gas just dropped to $1.54 |
|
I'm beginning to wonder if we are going to see gas drop below $1 again. Wouldn't that be something.
I just filled my tank for $15

14. The morning radio guy here |
|
in the Twin Cities, MN, said the lowest price in the area was $1.69.9. I paid $1.80 yesterday for regular unleaded.
It makes a nice change...except I don't know whether there'll be any money coming in outside of my SS check.

7. Hard to enjoy it much, since the drop is caused by the imploding economy. |
|
Gas is cheap, except wait -- now I'm worried about losing my job.

9. This lower gas is a huge stimulus for the economy |
|
I know it is putting about $200+ a month back into my pockets.
I saw the figures on this but I can't remember what the numbers were - but it is very significant because it gives money directly back to the consumers.

12. $1.85/gal when I got gas two days ago |
|
Another person that I work with just got it for $1.79 today at the same station (Phillipsburg, NJ). I suspect that it will be less when I get gas on the way home tonight.

26. The speculators have stopped speculating. |

But the increase in food prices due to transportation costs will be permanent. I can't afford to drink wine anymore!

39. A fall in gas prices is good, but remember diesel is still about 90c to $1 costlier than gasoline |
|
Edited on Fri Nov-21-08 01:43 PM by entanglement
That's still way above the historic 30c spreads. They're claiming a "global diesel shortage", but when those diesel prices fall, that will help push down the price of almost everything that is shipped by road.
