Think of the effects to those that drive for work related purposes.
My hubby co owns a renovation company.
Drives ALL over. Every day. Drives to this job & that, drives to this meeting & that. Drives to this store and that.
Gas prices can kill a small business that is already struggling to survive.
Think of all of those small businesses such as plumbers, electritians, renovations, construction, painting, etc.... they have to go where the jobs are..... because frankly, they are lucky to find those jobs in the first place.Don't Breed or Buy While Shelter Pets Die

Yup, we use Nevada Gas Prices (for Diesel) as we are right now in Nevada. But they have been wrong before. We went out last week to look for diesel and they sent us to 7-11's and Circle Ks. But neither had diesel!!!! ugh!
So this time, we saw the prices online, then called the places to make sure. We got to the station just in the nick of time as the guy was planning on raising it 10 cents! So the next group of people there saw a major difference.
I wish we could have stocked up on gas, but we will have to wait until we leave Lake Mead. As we live in a Toy Hauler 5th Wheel, we have a gas station onboard, but it has to be topped off.

I thought that I had posted this already, but did not see my post here.
My sister owns a Chevy Suburban and uses name brand premium gasoline and she is already paying over $5 a gallon for it.

I work at the same high school that my son attends and my daughters middle school is only 3/4 blocks away, so i wanted to move into an apartment that is between the two. That way I could walk to work and my kids to walk to and from school. I know that would save us a lot of gas. So there, rich oil dude's :p
I ran my life into a ditch big time and i am tired of struggling, i need a change and i need it now.
Trying to change past behaviors so they are not the indicator of future behavior.
That is why i am here...
