I can’t stand this attitude, you do realize that THIS is part of the problem. Fill up when you have to fill up, causing panic and hysteria, along with artifically inflated demand like this is what causes prices to go up, lines to be ridiculous, and pumps to run dry. Even if it goes to $5 tomorrow, guess what? In 2 days you’ll have to buy that same gas anyway. Ugh. ---
