The picture to the right was taken while wandering around Billings on Veteran's Day, November 11, 2008.
Perhaps you will recall that a month or two ago the prices were up around $4/gallon. They say this has something to do with supply and demand.
And then on November 16 it was below $2/gallon. See the picture to the left. Where will it stop? Isn't economics fun?
This is a small experiment in the blogosphere. "If you have no interest in what it's like to grow old, what follows is not for you. However, if it's going to happen to you, and the outcome is ultimately going to be negative, then finding a way to make the process as bearable, even as enjoyable as possible, might be worth a little attention."—from John Jerome's On Turning Sixty-Five

I noticed the price has fallen to $1.95 on the drive to work this morning.
We can always hope is continues to fall another $1.50.
I can wish, right? :-)
Thanks for the comment Randy. I'm afraid the decline much further than this will have something to do with a world-wide recession/depression. According to my memories of what my grandparents told me in the 40s—of course even in those days we didn't listen to our parents—it wasn't all that pleasant.
I saw $1.88 at CostCo today.
I saw the sign on the Kum & Go on 27th, i.e.the one pictured above at$1.82. I would have gone out and bought an RV, if my 401K weren't a 201K.
