We drove back from Tampa today and saw several gas stations

at $3.8=

down from 4+ last week. *Later I did some price shopping

expecting
something close to $4 but literally struck oil on the

fourth call.
We've got a truck arriving at the house tomorrow morning for
$3.69/gal, all taxes included.


Thats funny, the price of gas up here is set to go UP 6.4

cents per
litre overnight. This, blamed on the RISE in the price of a

barrel o=

oil.


The news says the average is down a penny but the stations

near me ar=

still the same from what I can tell. I would like to see it

dip, even
if only for a few days because I am down to my last couple

cans of ga=
s
for the boat.


$4.09 for 89octane 10% ethanol *blend here.
Last time I bought boat gas I got 50 gallons for $3.57 or so. It
lasted me almost 2 months but we were busy and did not boat as

much as
usual. If I don't see a big drop soon I may just buy a few cans

and
watch the price.


I would buy right now. *Unions in Yemen have just caused some

shutdowns=
.
* Libya taps are off, a Canadian pipeline also went down for major
unplanned maintenance and news is a shortage is coming from Saudi.


By August you might very well see north of $5 at the pumps

because add
in currency devaluation (inflation).
