Gas is crazy here too. I left for work this morning- the first station I passed with Conoco at $3.05--- I thought I would drive on to QuikTrip. QT was 2.99 last night and they have better pop and ice. I get to QT and it was $3.20 (as were the surrounding stations on the other 3 corners). I decided to wait for gas until after work.
When I came home tonight it was still 3.20-- I drove my again after running errands all evening and gas dropped to $2.99 again. I am not sure why--- I wondered if they are cracking down on gougers or what--suspended gas tax--who knows. I still need gas but I am not looking forward to filing up my SUV.
We have to drive to St Louis this weekend for a wedding and the thought of what I will spend on gas is almost frightening.
The news here is reporting that we can expect to be paying $3.50 a gallon by Sunday here in KC, and $4 w/in a week. At the rate we are going I think I should quit my job---something has got to give!
