I am Appreciating the low Prices of Gasoline!

I bet you haven't heard that (or a similar comment) from anybody else. I believe that this is because we live in such a pessimistic society.  Think about the comments that you hear from people regarding news, the weather and politics. It seems that somewhere around 90% of comments that people make about these three topics is negative.  It's rare to hear someone talk about how the cold weather is so nice because it makes a warm house feel so much better at the end of the day.  You almost never hear a comment about the good things that our government does.  If you watch the news, they may give the feel-good story about a cute litter of orphaned kittens being raised by a golden retriever.  However, this story will follow the reports of local shootings, auto accidents and burglaries. A big thing everyone was complaining about several monthes back was the high cost to fill up at the gas station.  Now, the prices are down and people are complaining about something else instead of commenting that they can fuel up the whole tank for less than $30. I saw regular unleaded go for $1.789 earlier today.  Now that's great stuff. To find the best prices in your area, go to www.gasbuddy.com and they'll tell you who has the cheapest gas.  The data comes from people just like you and I.  I drive by the local station in the morning and report to the website how much they are charging.  If more people use this site, we will have much more accurate listings of local stations. By the way, I LIKE the weather today.  It helps me appreciate my warm hat and gloves.
