Gas prices

I got so sick of listening to everyone complain about gas prices...it has been the hot topic of conversation all summer long but I have recently been amazed to watch the prices fall. Last week they were just barely over $2.00/gallon and this morning on our way back from the gym, I saw it for the first time since probably high school, that gas was under $2.00! So after realizing that gas is less than half the price of when we drove across the country in May, I decided to do a few calculations and I realized that we would have saved about $350 had we made the drive today instead of in May. Oh well :)

Good news, gas prices are low. Bad news, they're so low that it's a hot topic of conversation again!

  1. Um, what's up with California?! It's still 2.31 here. I want it to be under 2 bucks too!! Still though, it's better than 4.85 like it use to be. Thank goodness it's over. Ok, I'm done talking about it... for now.
