Luckily when I heard Issac was LA bound, I guessed it would interrupt drilling, refining and distriubution....and so filled up all the vehicles. They all, with the exception of one, are still sitting on full. The last fill-up, in the wife's Caddy, was at $2.99 with the .40 cent/gallon discount.

Of course, a week or two from now when a refill is needed, I can't say what the price will be. Hopefully everything will be back to normal (yeah, right).

Ever notice how quickly the price will jump because of something(like a hurricane), but it takes weeks or months to go back to "normal"(whatever normal means)

Yea, that's "mind conditioning" by oil spectulators.. Shoot it up over $4. & when it drops to $3. something, ppl think it's great !!!

My first fill up in my own car was 3.99 a gallon.

It's crazy though. I was driving the other night and saw 3.70 a gallon and said man that's a good deal. Who am I kidden.
