There are others that are just above $2. A couple of days ago, there was a service station in Grand Prairie selling gasoline for $1.99, but that was before others dropped. Has anyone else seen a sub-$2 price lately? _________________________ The way to get things done is NOT to mind who gets the credit for doing them. --Benjamin Jowett No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. --Eleanor Roosevelt The day we lose our will to fight is the day we lose our freedom.

We have a long weekend coming up, so the petrol outlets will jack up their prices again on Friday. Do other places have the price cycles? We get cheaper fuel on Tuesdays, and then it jumps up on Wednesday or Thursday. _________________________ The key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not smashing it.

We get cheaper fuel on Tuesdays, and then it jumps up on Wednesday or Thursday. A$1.49/L is equal to US$4.23/gal., and A$1.12/L is equal to US $3.18/gal. Since the conversion rate fluctuates, the dollar part may change, but a gallon is about 3.785 liters. In Arkansas, they have a Super Tuesday (in certain areas) where the super unleaded price is the same as the regular unleaded price. _________________________ The way to get things done is NOT to mind who gets the credit for doing them. --Benjamin Jowett No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. --Eleanor Roosevelt The day we lose our will to fight is the day we lose our freedom.

lady1 Champion Poster Registered: Wed Jun 07 2006 Posts: 20697 Loc: Gauteng South Africa	Gas in South Africa is equal to US$1.00 per litre. Believe that is equal to around US$5.00 per gallon. There is no fluctuation in the price as it is set by the Government, gas stations cannot charge more or less for gas. _________________________ "If Life Were Easy Where Would All The Adventure Be?"
