Gas Prices

Gas prices have conveniently come down .50 cents right before the election. That's odd? Not really when you realize Obama has made a deal with oil producing countries to help bolster his failed approval ratings. Some say it's because the value of the dollar is up. Others claim we are seeing the difference between winter and summer blends.

Rubbish!! It all comes from the same sand box in my opinion. I don't even see much difference between premium and the cheap stuff except in my wallet. And if the dollar is up, then why did I just spend $253.00 at the grocery store for one stinking cart? I'm not buying porterhouse over here either.

Well we shall see what will become of gas prices after the election when the Republicans gain control. I'm guessing the Arabs will jack the price sky high to make Romney look bad.

In the mean time, what do you make of this? I've always said God put certain things on this planet in over abundance for a reason, things like air, soil and water. Finally someone has decided to pick up on that.

But let’s just hope we don't all suffocate. I imagine it takes a lot of air to produce 2,000 lbs of petrol per day.

  • We use Costco for a lot of our organic greens and dry goods so when I signed up for Costco we went with the executive plan the got their Citi credit card. We drive to Fort Wayne once per week and try and take the truck and 4 or 5 five gallon cans with us for the mower and the bike. Costco gas is typically 15 to 20 cents per gallon cheaper than the local stations plus I get my annual kick back from Costco in store credit and we normally see $400 to $500 dollars back which makes the $120 annual fee nothing.

    We also use our local Kroger store for during the week grocery needs and use the fuel points (plus the weekly survey points) to get gas at a good discount too. You can save some decent money every year if you use a gas credit card (Marathon credit card comes to mind) or some of the local gas station buyer discount cards.
