Are Gas Prices Dropping?
In spite of oil's dramatic price drop last week, there is no expectation of a similar change in gas prices just yet.
However, here's at least one piece of evidence that gas prices might indeed be on the way down.
One week ago (Sunday, July 13), I took a photo at a gas station near Grapevine, CA, about halfway between San Francisco and San Diego. Regular gas was $4.99 a gallon.
