Gas prices down again in California. / myLot

I was a Big Boy and bought only a few gallons the other day when I was running low on gas. I sensed that gas prices were going to drop further in California. They are down another dime at my "discount" station, and are no doubt even lower, perhaps below $3.99 (a big deal if you live in California) in the Barrio, away from the freeway. My lessons went well, and I have not yet eaten dinner. I'm going to call my depressed friend and see if she us up for some sushi or something. I feel like treating myself, and I would not mind treating her as well.

That's a nice thing to do for your friend. And now it will cost less to drive there!

We had fun. I may get greedy and check gas prices in the next neighborhood over.

I am still paying over $4.00 a gallon and you are not that far away from me--what gives?

@divalounger I think Barrio is defined as a poorer neighborhood with many Mexican or other Spanish Speaking inhabitants. The one near my house has many "international" grocery stores and some really good "real" Mexican restaurants.

"Wouldn't not mind"? So, you would mind? Raises eyebrow...

The demand is low now and this is why the gas prices are down. I hope you can help your depressed friend.

Our gas prices are all over the place. Yesterday, in my bedroom community town, it was $3.49 A few miles down the road in C/U, it was $2.89 That's a HUGE difference, so I was glad I waited. I am glad you are checking in on your friend. You are a good hoomin.

It is going to go down more because the fascists won.

Do not worry they have plans to fool America to give the richest men in America even more money.

For whatever reason, I have been reading about Hitler the last couple of days. Interesting stuff I had not known. Hitler DID serve in WWI. He also lived off of an "inheritance" for many years.
