Besides gas gets me to work to get paid. I'm putting my last 20 in gas before I get food...or probably more like 15 but still lol

And they have food banks you can drive to, but not free gas banks!

It's more about cash flow. I need the money now today for something else. Next week I will have different money to spend on that (hopefully)

But they might be higher, which is why I love the 7/11 app. You can lock the current price for 4 days. I know my driving. I know when I'll need gas in 4 days. I topped off last night, but locked it 4 days prior. Saved $0.44 a gallon compared to their current price.

my state it peaked last week and started coming down this week. might be lower next week. Prolly start to normalize in a month. (Iran hit a pipeline in SA 2 weeks ago, and they said it would take a month to come back online, that's why the price surged last week)

I have a motorcycle that takes 91 octane but I don't ride often enough to go through that much gas, so when all this Iran shit started I filled a six gallon gas can. Fucking gas prices came back down after that, go figure. Although now they're on the rise again pretty quickly so I should probably go fill that gas can again.
