Thanks, Bryan. I just downloaded GasBuddy. On a different note, I bet we’ll see some companies giving away gas cards as promos for their business. Saving money on gas will be a very huge issue in coming months especially. Our gas is above $3.80 right now. Ouch.
Ouch! $3.80 per gallon! I bet you are right about companies giving away gas cards, it seems like I remember that happening several years ago when gas prices were around $4.50 per gallon.
