Gas Prices plummeted.

[Greg Dent]

We were at $1.35 a liter and the price dropped to about $1.12 to $1.15 and liter. What a nice price break that is. Tomorrow I am going to fill up all of my spare gas cans. Wish I had a 50 gallon drum to fill up.

 

For those that are wonder what that is in U.S. it works like this. 

 

1 U.S. gallon is 3.98 liters. So about 4 liters per gallon.  take $1.35 and multiply by 4 and you get about $5.40 a Gallon. Fill your car up at that price.

 

Drop that down to $1.15 and we are paying $4.60 a gallon. That doesn't take into account the exchange rate with the difference in the gallon to 4 liters it most likely would take that into account. 

 

I have an 08 Honda Ridgeline it was taking about $100 to fill it up. That dropped to almost $85 a fill.

In our town the price is $2.99/ gallon U.S. Would that equal $.62/ liter?

[luvsquilts]

I saw it the lowest here at 2.89/gal for reg. unleaded.

 

But I'm sure it'll get crazy and rise again. Let's see, will it be a war/conflict, economy, more greed, weather happenings, tied to some holiday.........take your pick. There's always something to "blame" the increased pricing on.

[User_123]

I paid 2.80/gal yesterday! Surely it will go back up to $5 a gal soon.

[NasusJW]

If the prices get too low, the oil companies will reduce production to drive the prices back up.

[trottigy]

This is one of those interesting paradoxes - isn't it.

 

As the US dollar - the oil reserve currency - gets stronger, oil prices usually go down - as the dollar is worth more it buys more - prices go down - in the US. But exports from the US to other countries then become more expensive - making the US export less and import more.

 

We are seeing the dollar getting stronger - which initially sounds good. But like everything in the crazy world - there is always a down side - http://www.cnbc.com/id/102043023  - but there are also matching upsides.

 

 

Interest rates typically go up - good for those saving and relying on that return - bad for ones trying to buy a house. Gold usually goes down - good for those buying bad for those who have invested in it.

 

What a crazy world we live in, eh?

Good gas is $3.59 cash $3.79 credit/debit in SoCal. Arco/BP (our cheap gas) should be even cheaper. 

[Allabord4Jah]

You can go on here and pull up various prices (I think its only for USA and Canada)

 

GasBuddy.com - Find Low Gas Prices in the USA and Canada

[Greg Dent]

I have that app on my phone. I always look to see if its cheaper anywhere else.

[Dustparticle]

 Probably the reason why gas prices are low because the WEST want Russia to suffer. Their economy depends on high gas prices. They want Putin to changes his old USSR mentality. I don't think Russia can survive without the West. But, time will tell.

Shouldn't our utilities cost go down...mine sure isn't.

[zoebarry]

I paid $3.29/gal for Premium gas at Costco yesterday!

yep, the $2.99 price I gave was ARCO/BP also.

I heard a statement from my local utility provider. They said prices wouldn't go down bc they already had a "stockpile" of higher priced energy they had to unload first! How greedy. So once they unload it, do u think they are going to start selling us the cheaper "stockpile"? I won't hold my breathe.

I have a 1200 Sq ft house. Tiny. My bill was $274 last month. And I'm constantly running around turning off lights. I use it, but I don't think I'm using it that much. Fridge, pc, 24/7. Everything else is just intermittent for maybe 4 or 5 hours a day. Ridiculous

I should have known...it will be so nice in the new system when we don't have to worry about bills.

[ava]

I have been enjoying it myself.  I paid 2.72 the other day.  Just enjoy it while it lasts, lol.

[Greg Dent]

Yup just this one thing alone. Not worrying about paying bills. That one thing alone gone. The amount of stress that will melt away from us will be wild.

[Allabord4Jah]

I hope by December gas prices will drop down to $.89 a gallon.   But I can settle for $1.50!

I remember paying .79 a gallon when I was in college one year. It was a good deal. I think it was normally around $1 at that time.

Paid 2.75 yesterday. Filled her up and a can.

I knew it was going to happen. The Anglo-American world power is at it again.

Good, serves them right.  They are one of the many who persecute our brother's over there and they deserve what they get.  Hope it last till the G.T. and then the end of Russia, and all other human ruler ship of nations.

Recessions don't affect only the small number of politicians, they affect everyone in the country, including the millions who have zero involvement in the persecution whatsoever. And then there's the extra hardship on our brothers and sisters who are already going through some very rough economic times, as well as making it harder for the congregations and branch facilities to buy necessary goods and services at an inflated rate.

 

The political struggle in the world isn't "good vs evil", there is no side to root for or against, all the rulers are just unwitting puppets of Satan and his demons, and a few may yet still find the truth. Satan isn't affected by the economy at all, nor any other political or social ailment, so we should be very cautious about how we view things that only bring harm to our potential brothers and sisters.

[Allabord4Jah]

True, not to judge, allowed Satan to make me vulnerable to judgements against another puppit county run by you know who! By the way, am a sister, not a bro!
