That's right! Yesterday I filled up our Allegro Bay with 87 octane gas (BP) that cost $2.859 (have receipt) at the Kroger Supermarket on Eureka Rd. in Southgate, Mi. To get that price we have to shop at Kroger, but the local Kroger is directly across the street from our condo in Brownstown, Mi. and the Kroger that sells gas is only 2 miles away from where we store our MH in Wyandotte, Mi. Used our G M Master Card and that saved us another 4% in G M points and rebates or approximately 11 cents. My guess is that gas will contine to come down as the overall economy falters. We're leaving for Scottsdale, Az in a little over a week, so these lower cost for gas is much appreciated and will save us a substantial amount of cash for the round trip to Arizona and back to Wyandotte, Mi. Has anyone else found gas for less than $3.00/gal? Bagman.

Shell was $3.49 yesterday and on the way to $2.50 we hear. Now I can't drive the MH because the gas in it is too expensive because I paid over $4 for it.

Gas in GA is normally about .55 over wholesale. That should have it about 2.80 now and it's still running about 3.90 to 4.09. This isn't a "big oil" ripoff because those guys are getting wholesale price for product. This is "little oil", either the local distributors or the local stations.

Man, and I was pretty happy filling up last night for $3.59... popped my bubble. Of course, in Traverse City, the view of the bay is half the pay so we always get to pay more
