Filling your car isn’t where it hurts. It’s just what everybody bitches about because it’s all they can understand. So gas jumps 50 cents/gallon. One less trip to McDonalds this week. :cjerk: Where it really makes a difference is in the cost of goods. All the extra expenses in shippping and transport gets passed down to the final consumer. ---

nyspeed should sign up for a single tops boneus card… everyone shop there for a couple of weeks, then save on gas. $0.10/gal per $100 spent. not sure what the limit is… i even think food stamp purchases count towards bonus points… ---

I still remember not too long ago when gas was under a dollar a gallon and all the stupid reporters were making a big deal out of it… they would compare gas to a gallon of water cause the gas was cheaper. :bloated: ---
