NEW YORK -- Oil prices took a nosedive Thursday in a historic selloff,
erasing weeks of gains and indicating that the months-long climb in
energy prices may have hit a ceiling.

Crude oil plunged 10 percent as startled investors unloaded their
positions and a weeklong decline accelerated into an outright
freefall. The price of U.S. crude went from triple digits to double
digits, falling below $100 after opening at close to $110. Brent
crude, a European benchmark, lost $12 at one point in a sell-off that
exceeded the one following Lehman Brothers' collapse, Reuters
reported.

An oil correction is underway, experts said, as the price is moving
toward what fundamental economic factors dictate it should be. For the
American consumer, plagued by weeks of rising energy prices that have
begun to weigh heavily on the economy, a bit of respite may be at
hand.

Surely, the fact that crude oil prices have nothing to do with pump
prices.... any more, at least....

Nope, not a bit. Bush put a stop to that when he was pocketing all the oil money. It appears 'Bama
is carrying on the tradition.

Well..... politicians are politicians.....

A very interesting theory that Bush was pocketing all the oil money
and Obama is doing the same.

Idiocy on parade, courtesy of Herring.

The Bush family was in the oil business and many of his allies came
from oil, I don't recall Obama or Obama's family in any similar
situation.

At some point, those remaining Americans capable of thinking are going
to realize how badly and how frequently they are raped by corporate
interests, and they will react appropriately.

I've given up trying to figure out the Bush family. Grandpa Prescott was
smart, Papa George H.W. is smart, Jeb is smart. Dubya is the
intellectual runt of the bloodline. Hell, he couldn't even make it in
the oil business, something at which his father succeeded.

You know the old adage, gas prices go up like a
rocket and
fall like a
feather
Yes, I also know the story about Chicken Littlle
Having nothing to do with what we are talking about.

It is a fact that gas prices go up with oil prices
but they lag
the
fall of oil prices by several weeks or even months.
If oil dropped to $60 tomorrow, gasoline might not
reflect that
for a
month or more.
Chicken Little was afraid of the sky falling. Right
wing nuts are
convinced the world is ending and rising oil prices
are
supposedly an
example. Totally appropriate comment.
`
The world isn't ending, but we are losing value in
the dollar and
that
shows up in oil or anything else we import. You can
live in denial
if
you like.

Yet the price of oil is dropping... I guess my denial
is working.
Let me know when you get the gas prices down to two
bucks. Thanks a
bunch
I can remember when we considered $2 gas to be
expensive. It was
only 10 or 11 years ago.

I paid $4.30 for gas today... I don't see anything coming
down, any
time
soon...


I paid $2.97 something for 23 gallons today. It really
must suck to be
you. That was at Shell, with a dollar a gallon discount
courtesy of
shopping at the supermarket.

Bull****. That's 10 cents a gallon discount. You are a
****ing liar of
you say you get a dollar a gallon off.

LOL, It is obvious that Harry Krause is losing it. You know
he didn't
want to make such a blatant mistake, but his mind is
slipping big time.
He read somewhere about a discount, but he couldn't remember
the amount,
so he guessed it was a $1 off



Talk about morons...jesus.

Gas is currently selling for about $3.89 to $3.97 a U.S.
gallon around here.

I paid $2.97 a gallon the other day. That's a dollar a gallon
discount.

Giant offers 10 cents off a gallon at Shell for each $100 you
spend at
the supermarket. Thus, if you spend $1000, you get a dollar a
gallon
discount.

You dumb****s can't even handle simple grade school math.

Bull****. They do the same here, and that's not the way it
works. You
never get more than a dime a gallon off. You are a ****ing liar.
Here's
how it works. When you spend 100 bucks at the store, you get 10
cents
off a gallon for 100 gallons. If you spend 1000 at the store,
you get 10
cents off a gallon for 1000 gallons. Idiot.

When you go to Giant you are paying higher prices than you pay at
Safeway, Magruder's, Weis, and other grocers in my area.

And, the Shell station closet to me has prices that are about 6 or
7
cents greater than the BP station which is more convenient.

Why am I going to pay higher prices for groceries, about $20 more
than
Safeway, then go out of my way to go to a Shell station to save 3
or 4
cents a gallon? The economics just don't make sense.



How it works


For every dollar you spend at Giant, you earn a point on your card.
Earn 100 points, save 10¢/gallon
on gas. The more you shop, the more you save - you can redeem up to
$2.20/gallon in a single fill
up.
Points Savings
100 10¢/gallon
200 20¢/gallon
300 30¢/gallon
...up to $2.20/gallon!


Points are valid for 30 days.


Terms and Conditions


Fuel savings are limited to 35 gallons of fuel per vehicle per
purchase, or limits placed on your
payment card by your financial institution, which may be lower.
Total discount cannot exceed price
per gallon. Limit of 2,200 points may be redeemed with any fill up.
Earned points are available for
redemption within 24 hours. Offers available at Giant or
participating Shell locations. Giant
Rewards points earned at participating Giant locations only. Giant
Gas Rewards not available in
Charlottesville, North Carolina. Only purchases made with your
Giant card are eligible. Net purchase
excludes alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, pharmacy items,
gift cards, milk, Metro passes and
any other purchase prohibited by law. Giant Gas Rewards points will
expire 30 days from date of
issuance. Your date of purchase is day 1. Giant Rewards points
available at the time of a gasoline
transaction will be redeemed. Visit your participating Giant stores
for program details. Offer may
be modified or discontinued at any time without notice. Not valid
where prohibited by law. All
trademarks are property of their respective owners.




So, in order to get a $1.00 per gallon discount, you must spend
$1000 to earn 1000 points


Note the fine print: "Giant Gas Rewards points will expire 30 days
from date of issuance." So, all
Harry has to do is spend $1000 at Giant in 30 days, and within the
same 30 days he can save $1 per
gallon on gas.


So, where's the issue? Surely no one is doubting that Harry and his
lovely (in his words) bride
spend $1000 on food in 30 days!

Tubby Hairy and his roly poly bride must be stuffing their faces in
order to save a bit on gasoline. Penny wise and "POUND" foolish.
Snicker.
