Gas dropped .10 today down to 3.99. it has been at 4.09 for about 2 weeks

Same here. A little bit down is a psychological relief.

Hope those prices come around here. According to gas buddy, $4.44 is currently the cheapest for regular. Unless Sams club member, then it's a nickel cheaper at $4.39.

Paid $4.09 for E85 yesterday at the cheapest in town. There are only two stations in town that carry e85.

Currently sitting in the Tractor Supply parking lot (DH is loading fencing for the sheep!) and propane is currently $3.89/gallon

Rumor is that China COVID shutdowns are reducing global demand for oil, which is/will keep crude oil prices stable or dropping. But China's COVID shutdowns are likely to affect the global supply chain. Rumor is that technology and automotive industries will be affected. China's ports are open, but truck traffic to the ports is delayed by the government requiring drivers to show negative PCR tests. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/15/business/covid-china-economy.html

today in town the price for gas was $4.13. of course the price of gas will come down slower than it went up.

Love Spanky.... barrel price was down today... hoping it will drop some more. That will help cattle prices too....

Gas dropped here last night to 3.99 for regular. DS got diesel on Monday for 4.89 south of here when he went to the stockyard. Still 5.05 here. Barrel price yesterday dropped to $96 , and I think it closed below 100. Never thought I would be glad to see it at 3.99 when it was 2.89 last year....

VA is considering a 90 day moretorium on state gas tax...if it goes thru, maybe 35 cent less for a while. I'm ok with that. .
