How High Can It Go?
The cost of gas, that is. Here in my neck of the woods, regular is at $2.97 a gallon on the PA side of the border, and $3.09 a gallon on the NY side. Last year, during the Katrina nightmare, regular gas topped out at $3.77 a gallon, and despite all the worries, only one station went dry – the one whose incredibly old pumps max out at $2.99/gal. The owner sold more gasoline in 24 hours than he’d probably sold in the 2 years previous.
So, what are prices doing in your neighborhood – and what’s your best guesstimate of how high the prices will rise during the month of May?
I think I’ll make this my first contest.
Enter your best guess in the comments before May 1st. Whoever comes closest to the maximum price of gasoline in my little corner of PA without going over will win something. (Something cheap….like a pretty postcard mailed by yours truly.) I’ll announce the winner on June 1st.
Rules:
Ummm…there are no rules since there’s no real way to cheat.
