OT - Holiday gas prices
Well, it seems that every travel holiday sees an increase at the pumps.
Not so for me this morning. Luckily, my wife reminded me that every year
on 12/24 - our local gas station has a sale for most of the day.
The discount is on Regular only, but that's OK with me. Check it out: $1.09/gal !!

Texas seems much cheaper then most places... I'm from Seattle, home of the 1.79/gal for the cheap stuff, then I drove through Cali, my goodness, 1.99/gal for the cheap stuff? Then I come here, 1.39/gal for the cheap stuff.... Nice...

I filled up for $1.45 Wednesday here in Northern California. Kinda nice to see that we are not getting screwed as bad this year as in previous years. Maybe OPEC is afraid of Arnold (lol) ;)

Re: OT - Holiday gas prices (NHvette)
Here in Northern NJ, the prices have been falling a penny or two every couple weeks since they peaked in the 1.70's for regular during the summer. Now the cheapie stations are in the high 1.30's/low 1.40's with the majors a bit more than that.
And no additional gouging during the holidays this year either. What a pleasant surprise! :rolleyes:
