So true! Most stations in my area are still hovering around (or just under) the $3.00/gal range. I just filled up at Costco, though, for $2.55, which is the lowest I've seen it in a long while. (Gas there is usually $.25 to $.30/gal less than the local average in my area.)
I suspect traffic is going to be ugly, so I'm hoping to be able to stay close to home this weekend. Has anyone heard of companies giving people Monday off for a long weekend? I imagine some folks could just use vacation or personal days. [Remember getting paid for those days off? What a concept! But the catch was the 50+ hrs a week that had to be worked on the job to earn those days off... ] |
