We drove back from Tampa today and saw several gas stations at $3.85,

We've got a truck arriving at the house tomorrow morning for

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 of
oil.

The news says the average is down a penny but the stations near me are
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 gas
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).
