I had half a tank, so I could only put 8.5 gallons in, but it was only $14.00! Filling the tank for less than $20.00, WOW! Gas was around $1.69 last night here in Boston!

And strange how a 5% reduction in usage translated to the pump price. Also to keep in mind, the more a barrel of oil drops, the fewer oil reserves are profitable (such as that coastal oil and Canada's oil sands). But yeah, I certainly like how my bank account has been behaving the past month now that it takes less than a $20 to fill half-a-tank. It also helps that the dollar has stopped its freefall.

I'm just worried that it could very easily go up again. I’m with you that I don’t mind the lower prices and being in the ball park of $20 to fill my car.

I like the prices right now but I'm sure OPEC does not. The poor poor Saudi's that were making billions last year are only making hundreds of millions this year. Hopefully they don't cut production to drive the price back up. I’m worried the price is going to fall too much and cause a price spike. I like the prices right now but I’m sure OPEC does not.

At these prices a few $20.00's should do it! James and I were talking today about when we went to Colorado this past spring, it cost us $700.00 (round trip) just in gas. We had to be real careful what we spent so we could get back. We could probably do it now for less than half that amount.

Of course, one Meijer has it for $1.67 and the other for $1.75. Sams Club has gas for $1.57 for members, $1.62 for non-members down here.
