Thread: New Record High $139

Tweet

On my way to the Dr. appointment this morning gas was $3.85 9/10teenths. Diesel $4.41 When I got home my wife had to go to work. Checking the CHR not much going on I went to Yahoo’s home page to see what the highlights were.

There it was.
Oil prices jump $11 to record high above $139 a barrel

They are calling for oil to be $150 this summer. I called the closest station, which is 13 miles from our home. I asked if they had raised the price since this morning? The girl said it was still $3.85. I wanted to know if they would be raising it before I could drive that distance, she asked then came back to say they would be raising it to $3.99 within the hour.

We were having tornado warnings for our area so I toss a coin so to speak do I go to beat the increase or play it safe and try to avoid the tornado? I go for the price savings. I put $96 dollars on the plastic card, if gas goes over $4.00 I can put gas in my wife's car so she can go too work.

Is this insane or what? I think the next President should 100 days to get a grip on what is going on or kick him out.
