Well, if you live in the United States, you should know that we'll have Memorial weekend until Monday. So, a long weekend for all of us, and majority of people certainly take extra vacation day go somewhere fun. Start from today, many people might already take the day off. The consumption of gasoline will be high as you might know, and it is summer time too. I glad that this morning I check on the nearby gas station, the price hasn't gone up a bit. In contrary, it is going down, from yesterday $3.75 to today $3.69. I hope everyone would take advantage of it, and enjoy your Memorial weekend wherever you go. Have fun!

Imagine being happy that our gas is only $3.69. Now, if we could drill our own oil, it might be half of that.

Our gas prices went down around here also. That is good because alot of people will need to travel this weekend. I hope the prices continue to go down from now on but I doubt it.

Gas might of dropped a little but to many of us Americans it is not enough of a drop to make driving anywhere worth while. It still is well above a limit the average person can tolerate.

I am sure that a lot of people would be happy not to see the price of gasoline go up this weekend. many people make traveling plans and the rise in gas prices would definitely put a damper on the weekend.

You make a good point, Kingparker! I wasn't really planning on driving anywhere far this weekend (because of traffic, mainly) but maybe I will take the family on a day trip, at least, before gas prices begin to climb, climb, climb. Sunday is usually the best day to drive somewhere on a long weekend (at least in the Northeast). So maybe we will take a drive to NY or Philly while we can still afford it! Have a great weekend!
