My wife called me up thursday night all frantic to get me to fill with gas. All the stations were packed. My wife wanted to go out on a rainy thursday night to fill up her civic (which had a 5 day lasting half tank of gas left).

I bet her a case of beer that it was all hysteria, and that the prices wouldn't budge over the weekend. I got pretty drunk last night.

Anyone else?

I had 2 bars left that day so I went out at lunch to avoid having to get it on the way home.

Got it at 104 with no line up. EVERY station on the way home was packed

I didnt even bother that day....... not worth my time.

I filled up the next day after the hype, when there was no lineups, at 99cents..... suckers

Exactly! With a civic, you would save, what ................................ 10 bucks on 1/2 a tankfull? So if it goes up, how much is this in terms of % of overall annual savings? And this would apply (the % thing) even if you drove a huge SUV.
Do it out of principle if you must but don't do it to save a few bucks.
Ain't hype and paranoia wonderful?

ps. I'll bet there are lots of people who will drive 30 miles to the other side of town because they'll save 2 bucks on a pair of pants from Army/Navy.

pps. I'm not saying sky rocketing fuel prices is a good thing nor is it a reasonable thing. I'm just saying we shouldn't go nuts about it at the pumps.

All those people probably used $5 of gas just idling.. Morons.

I filled up the day before the frenzy because I needed fuel for this weekend. Suckers.

I did, needed gas anyway, and at 94 bucks to fill up, if by chance it did double 180 would have hurt realllll baddddd
