Is it me or is gas going up 10 cents a day?

Thursday last week I see 93 octaine @ $2:13
Friday go to fill up T up & it is @ 2:23.
Saturday same station $2.33
Today $2:41

WTF!

 

[BlackMetal]

Yup it's going up again.

 

[BEATAV8]

economy must be on it's way to "recovery".....

Yeah, a couple of weeks ago, analyists were saying that we have an excess supply of oil and gasoline. At levels not seen in 20 years.

Huh, then why is the price of gas going back up again? Just in time for the summer to gouge us again. What happened to the fundamental of supply and demand?

How much will it go up to this time? Who knows.

They said today on the news they are preparing for the busy holiday weekend coming up and getting ready for a surge in usage. Gotta love how they "think" people are going to start using more fuel so they can crank the price up because they see fit but it takes months and months of lower usage to go back down. One word sums it up.. greed! Ain't a friggin thing anyone can do but pay and they know it.

This morning it was 1.99 close to work and tonight it is 2.09 at the same station that is always .10 lower than everyone else in town.

Not only is gas up but we coffiee drinkers are getting the shaft too. sugar and coffiee was reported today that thier will be a shortage.

 

[GNBRETT]

Sure seems that way.

Same Crap as last year. Supply was up, Demand was down and the Speculators were driving the price up. Some of which where Banks that are getting bailed out now.
I.C.E, trades in Atlanta but of course it's based in Europe so now U.S. regulation or oversight.

..

Since the bank passed their stress test fuel cost are rising. Banks and investors are investing in oil again causing the price to rise. I wonder how far a gallon of gas will climb in a couple months? The price of fuel is one of the main reasons the economy fell of a cliff last year.

 

[BlackMetal]

$2.65 today. Highest I've seen in a while. Probably $3 soon.

 

[TR Custom Parts]

Sure seems that way.

Our wonderful attorney general wants a probe done to investigate why this is happening. The only ones getting "probed" is us. He just wants another excuse to get on the news. Nothing is ever done about gas prices.

Dan,
Go to Wal-Mart. Buy Ol'Roy. It's like $10-12 for 40 pounds. The dog loves it, and it is made in I think Virginia, so you don't have to worry about the plastic that gets mixed in with the made in China food. The Ol'Roy dog biscuits are also made in USA.

Anybody look at the price of the dollar against other currencies in the world? If you don't know, the dollar is crashing, The world has finally realized our money is becoming virtually worthless!

1.The U.S. debt will probably rise to over $11 trillion. Foreign investors are concerned that the U.S. may let the dollar decline so the relative value of its debt is less.
2.The large debt could force the U.S. to raise taxes to pay it off, which would slow economic growth.
3.As more countries join or trade with the EU, demand for the euro will increase.
4.Foreign investors may want to diversify their portfolios with more non-dollar denominated assets.
5.As the dollar begins to decline again, investors will be less likely to hold assets in dollars as they wait for the decline to stop.
