You don't get it, it won't lower prices and if you were going to have to fill up that day anyway, you'll just fill up the day before or after.

Don't drive for a day. A week. A month. That will save you money and if enough people did it, would actually make a dent in the demand, thus increasing the supply, thus making the price decrease.

It won't happen, but that's the only way it would work.

I think this is just silly. People have too much on their plate on a day to day basis already, so they don't need to sit and figure out how to not get gas on May 15. And it does not make any sense that this would hurt the gas companies....for example:

Let's just say that each day 3 million people get gas. If one day, 2 million people decided to get gas on different day than normal, so only 1 million people get gas that day...the gas company won't feel a pinch cause difference was made on another day...get it? There is no "loss".
