Gas Prices “Just How High Are We Going?”

[pk]

What really bothers me is the fact that the government has us so well trained now that we all think that 2.83 is a good price! We actually have looked forward to and rejoiced that the gas dropped to this amount.

What is next? It will skyrocket to 4.00 so we will think that 3.49 is great??

This is crazy. Give me the days when we could drop a 5.00 bill in the tank and take off with plenty of gas for the day!

GAS TIP FOR THE DAY:

A car uses 1.6 ounces of gas idling for one minute.
Half an ounce is used to start the average automobile!

Well I took a peek today at the gas prices out there and sure enough...yesterday, 2.83. Today: 2.85. Doesn't look like much but any climb up can be the begin of the rise. yikes!

I got gas yesterday (8-21-07) for $2.85 in Jefferson

Just down the road about 13 miles in Sullivan it was at $3.05 and had been like that for days.

$2.85 felt like a bargain!

Yes, the gas is starting to creep up here again. Just under 3.00.

I just read again that we are going to be paying closer to 4.00 this winter to make up for the cheaper prices this summer! CHEAPER PRICES???

yea...isn't it funny how they always seem to have a 'need' to raise the price of gas...just when everyone is planning on using it. Go figure.

CHEAPER PRICES??????

Something is up because my monthly budget for LP heating gas has gone from $102.00 a month up to $275.00 a month!!

That's just nuts....and if I dont pay it monthly, I don't receive my "discount" for when I do have to fill the tank.

Time to move all of Wisconsin into Georgia, a state whose gas price a HUGE $2.36. One which doesn't tax its citizens either. :lol:

Saw a great greeting card at Target last night. I was looking for one for my sister and couldn't help see a "Now That's Funny Card" with George Bush "Taking stock of the situation"... opening the card he was ordering stocks of "Exxon, etc."

I laughed..

..that is all
