Falling Prices

I'm not really sure what is going on, but every day our gas prices continue to drop. I'm totally not complaining!

Just a couple days ago the super unleaded price was at $2.99 and we thought that was low.

Every morning (this week) they seem to be lower than the night before.

Every afternoon they seem to be lower than the morning prices.

We keep wondering... where is it going to bottom out? What's the catch?

We also gotta love that we can get 3 cents off per gallon at the station we frequent just by paying cash. As a bonus, we have coupons from them that can get us an additional 5 cents off per gallon (with no strings attached) or 20 cents off per gallon with a car wash. And she got a 12 cent off per gallon coupon... just for going bankrupt at the grocery store this morning. Woohoo!

Carie had gotten into a routine of filling up the van mid-week, every week. The prices always seemed to jump around the weekend and then taper off about mid week. So whether we needed gas or not, she'd fill up just so we would have a full tank come the weekend in case we ended up going out of town. But now we are puzzled, happily so.

Now... if food prices could head in the same direction that would be really nice. Carie was at the store this morning and was telling me about the prices of some items. The price was easily double what we've paid in the past. I'm like, we can totally skip buying green beans (a favorite veggie in our house) until they go on sale! We'll eat different veggies for now, thanks!
