Rep Power: 166 | | | Gas finally dropping in NC
The price of gas finally dropped form over 3.70. It is around 3.40 now and lower for regular. Can not get mid grade they aren't receiving any it seems. ( 89 octane) So we have 87 Octane and 93 Octane.
Personally I don't like driving on 87 for long, car starts knocking. But I sure don't want to pay almost 20 cents more for 93. Not a big problem yet since I don't drive very much.

Rep Power: 46 | | | Here in Indy it's $2.72 believe it or not. I don't know if I'll wake up tomorrow and it will be $3.72, then the next day $4.15. It seems to go up and down, up and down like Pamala Lee Anderson without a bra.
With a 50 mile round trip commute to work I'm hoping it stays in the two dollar and something range.
