Better stay here with us. We are definitely NOT crazy.

Well not compared to those at the malls today.

How much do you save with the coupon, TG? Is it worth the potential stress and hassle? Are they going to have any online sales? Good luck if you go out and face that crazy crowd, just be careful!

I should have probably gone to the store today so I have a few more choices through the weekend. Maybe in the morning I'll go to the little nothing town in Missouri. Never a crowd there. Though in morning I may feel like saying to hell with it, especially if I don't sleep all night again.

Minor vent but annoying. I would like to have a loose tea infuser spoon. Last year stores in Lake City, Florida had none. This year stores in Tampa area have none. It is apparently one of those things missing in Florida, like a train system. Another thing I haven't found yet is an extension chord with a flat head.

Maybe its a tax thing to some degree, though you can bet around the holidays it won't be going down any.

The prices in Iowa are cheaper for that ethanol mix but I don't think its good for cars, no matter what some might say and you get worse mpg too. In Missouri the prices for unleaded and the ethanol crap are the same. It's usually cheaper there than in in the rural Iowa towns. Des Moines has always been even more than around my rural area for gas, I don't really get that either. I don't know how some families do it, with everything so expensive. Milk and gas about the same price, which do they choose.

We spent 805 Billion on the war and gas is still over 3 bucks a gallon. I can think of countless better uses for that money.
gas at Kroger is 2.50 in Ne Tennessee, but is bcs I had 900 value points on my grocery card, and they discount your gas.

Plus I let the ex use it, since I currently dont have a car (He totaled it in DUI) lol....guess im a good girl. I have no bitterness...

I did buy him a bottle of 100 proof moonshine

You'd think, with all the senior citizens down here that it would be a stocked item!

U.S. Oil industries Exporting gasoline offshore


Keeping the price at the pump high!


I didn’t want to bring this up however,,,,,,, Did you know that our oil companies have a surplus of “refined” (gas) and are shipping it off shore instead of putting it out on the U.S. market. Seems that way they can keep the price at the pump a little higher by not allowing the market to have a huge surplus of gas sitting around and the price drop lower.

America Becoming a Net Gasoline Exporter

Low demand for gasoline at home leads U.S. refineries to export more

Wow you are nice, If I had the ex in my sights, I'd be chasing her with my car. He totaled your car, and then you turn the other cheek, don't get another bruise from being too nice.

Well buying him the moonshine is a start, now just wait till he inhales it and is rocking back and forth on that top stair step. As you sing...Slip slidin away.
