I don't care about local/spot prices. Only the average matters in such an analysis.

I think I'll demand to pay less for gas tonight, since it's only the national average that matters.

You can always go inside and negotiate with the station. I've done it before.

We are set to become the worlds largest oil producer in the next 5 or so years and are always near or at the top in gas consumption. They could certainly influence pricing if they so chose. Too many people getting rich is the problem. |

I'm fortunate where I can drive 15 or so minutes to either Md or Va and save significantly on gas, but it doesn't change the fact that prices are too high everywhere.

Does anybody use the Hy-Vee Fuel Saver Card? I saved about 1.20 a gallon the other day.
The downside, I have 1500 Flavor Ice Treats to consume. http://www.hy-vee.com/resources/fuel-saver.aspx |
