Gas Fairy, Thank You!

We haven't seen gas prices this "cheap" in about two years. I can't believe it. I put 3/4 of tank in my Explorer yesterday and it "only" cost $27. I almost did a little dance! Mike and I can now fill up both of our tanks for what it was costing to only fill up the Explorer. The Gas Fairy has taken her wand to every gas station. It's awesome!! Still a little sad that we think $1.94 is cheap, but, hey, it's half of what we were paying just two months ago. I say keep it up, Gas Fairy. I hope this lasts for a while cause it's really helped our financial struggles.

A couple of years ago there was a car commercial that got taken off the air. There was a little fairy that went around changing things, including a manly man into a girly man. Apparently it offended some gay, I mean, homosexual, people and they had it taken off the air. But, I think the saying at the end of that commercial is very fitting for the Gas Fairy! "Silly little fairy!" Keep up the good work! My wallet thanks you!

I am right there with you. It is awesome. I filled up for 1.85 today and it was so nice to see it cost less than half of what it did this summer. It was killing us with bills now they need to reduce electricity back down to their old rates.

Dude, you should drive to Taylor to fill up. I filled up my car today at $1.65. I haven't been able to buy gas without wanting to vomit for so long...it feels great to spend just $25 to fill up my car.

Get this...my mom paid $1.52 yesterday. Something else I don't understand...why does it cost 40 cents more here than there? Why does it cost 30 cents less where you are? Austin is really starting to get on my nerves. I think a move is in order!
