Having gas

Gasoline prices have done quite a nosedive here. On October 5, it was $3.54 per gallon (down from just over $4 in July). Yesterday, I saw it for $2.82. That's a $.72 drop in just eight days. Pretty cool.

UPDATE!
$2.62 this morning (10/20/08). Dare we dream of travelling again?

YET AGAIN!
Last night (10/22/08), $2.55. That's a $0.99 cent drop in 18 days. Go! Drive!

OH YEAH!
Tonight (10/25/08), $2.41. With only 6 days to go in the month, how much further can it drop?

HOW LOW CAN YOU GO?
October 26, 2008: $2.37!

DONE, I THINK. (10/30/08)
We've been at $2.32 for the past 3 days here, so the prices may have finally leveled off. So in 25 days, prices dropped $1.22. The cheapest in Minnesota yesterday was in Cloquet, about an hour south of here, at $2.03.

NOPE, NOT DONE YET!
November 1, 2008: $2.19. That is a nearly $2.00 drop from it's most expensive in Mid-July and a $1.35 drop in 27 days ($.05 average drop per day).

THAT'S ALL.
I've been following this for a month now, and we seem to have leveled off at $2.16. I may go somewhere this weekend.
