Re: Gas prices dropping!
I am currently "saving" about $75 a week over the diesel prices from two months ago.

Re: Gas prices dropping!
$1.59 here.
Honestly, I never thought I would see the day it went below $2 again.
Full tank of gas for $26.50.....not bad.
Now, if the airlines were smart, they would start doing what Southwest did a few years ago and pre-buy gas.

Re: Gas prices dropping!
Went through Corning, AR yesterday and filled up with $1.29 a gallon gas!
It's $1.58 where I live, but someone at the Corning gas station told me that Jonesboro was at $1.17, so Renda, your dad is correct.
My kids think it's cool to see gas so cheap! LOL!

When I first started driving, gas was $1.08 a gallon. To a kid with a car with a tank as large as a UPS truck, it was a lot of money to fill up for $26, especially when that car (1973 Buick Electra) was only getting about 8 miles to the gallon, and I drove 10 miles one way to school every day!
In the late 80's, gas dropped to $0.63 a gallon where I lived. At that time, I had a 1982 Ford Escort, and it cost $6 to fill it up and I got over 30 MPG!
I never thought I'd see gas under $2 a gallon again, but here we are!

I think it's cool to, except when I analize why it's cheap. We have 6.5 percent unemployment. Keep in mind that's only people that are drawing unemployment. Unemployment only last 12 weeks I believe and then your no longer a unemployment number. People have been loosing jobs all year long. So what is the true unemployment number?
25% Higher? The unemployed that can't draw unemployment any longer can neither afford to by gasoline... thus, the price of gasoline is based on supply and demand no mater how some may think the oil companys were in control of the price. Our joy is not someone else's....
