This morning, I was jolted out of my pre-coffee haze by a sign at the Sheetz in Mechanicsburg saying regular unleaded gas was $2.25 a gallon.
With my tank on empty, I scooted in and filled up my Honda Civic for $24.75!!
Not $45 or $50 like recently. $25!!!!!!! I'm not getting overly excited though. I fear the prices will just go back up once the election is over.
It was such a pleasant discovery during a time when it seems the all news relating to jobs, finances, cost of living and the economy in general is bad news.
On the flip side though, I read this story about how some people are about fed up with being charged $1,000 for some domestic flights -- for COACH seats! -- and that doesn't include the fee to check luggage.
What do you think of this?
