I am not sure up to when this would be.....but right now, gas prices in our area are going down.....and I am very happy about it.... a few cents less per gallon is a big amount when put together...so whether this is just for the moment or would last, it is a welcome respite from high prices for a lot of us!

Here too. According to the gas map, it's creeping down all across the country. Not a ton, but as you said...a few cents adds up! I've read some things that suggest that OPEC is trying to make sure the prices lower because they're concerned about the state of our (and the world's really) economy. A little while back oil rose on hopes that the economy'd be fine soon, and went back down as soon as the hopes deflated. So...this might be our silver lining? I darasay, that if fuel prices keep lowering it'll help alot.

My boyfriend and I began to notice this recently as well, thank goodness! Yesterday we were driving together and it seemed as though gas prices have gone down almost 75 cents in some areas! That's a huge change. You're right -- even just a difference of a few cents such as 10 cents per gallon is a big savings, especially for those who drive a great deal. Hopefully they will stay lower for a long time!

Gas prices for us have gone down to $3.37 a gallon and I am excited. I think we should go out and get some gas cans so we can buy it when it is low and we can afford it so that we have something there when we need it and cant afford to get it.

I paid $2.63 for gas last night on my way home. It has steadily been dropping here for the last few weeks. It dropped about 15 cents from Tuesday to Friday.
