    Default oil dropped


    Oil dropped $10.00 a barrel yesterday. Keep on going down. It will help the economy greatly to get gas prices way down.

    It is below $100 a barrel now! Wahoo. I don't look for it to drop even a nickel before Memorial Day...Just my opinion!
    PerchPlucker: I agree that gas prices need to go down in order to REALLY boost the economy. These gas prices have everything on the rise. I am 28 now and my wife and I moved into together when I was 18, so 10 years ago. I can remember going grocery shopping and spending $100 on a cram-packed shopping cart and thinking we weren't going to be able to afford to eat or put gas in our vehicles...Today, we can't leave the same store with the same cart, and roughly same groceries for under $250-300. It is crazy really!!

    My brother keeps up on these sorts of things and he said that for the last three months, the U.S. has exported more oil than it imported and also has exported gasoline. So why do you think prices are still so high?

    They say there is NO fuel shortage and that the prices are being manipulated by the investors.....

    Went up 9 cents after someones death and after the price of oil dropped $10. Finally went down today 4-5 cents. Sure glad I moved 30 miles closer to work the last time gas got high. Sure helps the pocket book this year. 3 years ago we were spending more in gas a month than what our house payment is. No spending less than the grocery bill even at the prices they are now. More money for gas in the boat now instead of making it to work.
