Fuel Prices at the pump take a welcomed dip

But there’s some positive news; consumers can look forward to some relief at the gas pump, because fuel prices took a dip at midnight on Sunday.  Premium went down by sixteen cents, bringing the price back below the twelve dollar mark at eleven-ninety-seven. Diesel had an even bigger decrease of sixty-eight cents and is now selling at ten dollars and twenty-nine. For those who use regular gasoline, the price remains at eleven dollars and sixty-seven cents.

    take two breaths and a spin and it will be right back or above where it has been. Stop taking us for fools. WAKE UP PEOPLE!

    I think people need to Google, read and absorb the parable – How the trap a wild pig. It has many interpretations, so read with an open mind and comprehend, that since fuel was once around $5 it has gradually raised, slowly at the beginning and we complain a little and then we become complacent and adjust then it gradually climbs and we do the same—and well into the future, we are told a myth about scarcity of oil and wars etc…so we, without merit or fact finding, swallow the blue bill and go back about our business and they keep giving it to us, constant, incremental increase, and to make us feel warm and toasty inside, the price is lowered from time to time and we jump up and rejoice. Thu, it is not hard trapping a wild pig.

    16cents reduction in fuel price shouldn’t even be news. Report when it falls below the $10 mark.

    i don’t welcome this as good news but as bad news, later they’ll raise the gas double the amount they brought it down lets say 40 cents it will go up whenever they change it again. this is a shame for real to say a dip in fuel price but a warning fuel can go even higher than actual price after this. mein we stand bad in cost of living, who can we blame now? do anybody have any idea?

    You can begin by making your own biodiesel fuel from waste cooking oil! In the US it cost me .71 cent to product a gallon of better grade fuel then petro diesel…get on with it!!!
