cashed in 1000 points? I thought you were on a diet

I use it weekly for my truck, tends to knock ~0.10/gal off/ week. nice perk... In conjunction with our 5% rebate (with Shell MC) it ends up saving us ~$30/month

We save it until I get by a S&S Gas stop

Beside - I have a 10 year old son - you will know what I mean.

And diets are not cheaper than first available.

I've paid as low as $1.20 using my wife's stop & shop card.
I think at that time street price was around $2.80
Filled up my Ranger last sat paid $3.08, sucks when you feel like thats a deal !
One thing with the card, use it before the end of the month.
Points expire at the end of the month.

Saw 4.25 routinely in CT yesterday.

Release permits for drilling and prices should plummet. Right now OPEC believes the worlds largest user has no other options but to buy from them...

They were reporting that gas prices may drop by $0.75 by the summer. BIG FRIGGIN' DEAL!!!!
I love how they parade a circus of so-called "experts" to explain that gas prices climb faster than a monley with its tail on fire, but fall slower than a feather in an updraft.
Fox25 news had on some shmuck from Exxon, and he sure played the part, making sound like we would be hitting the lottery when prices start falling.

Apparently no one can simply and HONESTLY explain why prices rose so quickly and will (hopefully) drop so slowly.
It's probably because there is no simple and honest answer that wouldn't be a criminal indictment of the oil companies and the "speculators.
