Supposedly the increase in demand from China and India are creating a
shortage in oil supply which in turn is driving up oil prices.  What do you
suppose drivers in those two countries are paying for gas?  I dread thinking
of my heating oil bills this coming winter.
I just poured the last gas from my last five-gallon can in the Gravely
yesterday and I still have a bunch of mowing to do.  I was waiting for the
price to come down before filling the cans again (sigh/sob).  I guess I'll
siphon some from the Studebakers <G>.

There is an angle that can reduce your gasoline cost 8% across the
board if you live in a market "served" by Speedway/SuperAmerica.

Here's how it works: First you apply for (and get) a Speedway/
SuperAmerica Platinum MasterCard. When you use it to buy 'most anything
(including fuel) at a Speedway/
SuperAmerica Gas Station, you get a 4% rebate on your credit card bill.

But DON'T use your S/SA MasterCard to buy gasoline right from the pump.
Instead, go inside and buy one of their prepaid fuel cards. Then, use
that prepaid fuel card at the pump. Those cards are sold at a 4%
discount; a $50 fuel card costs $48.

DO use your Speedway/SuperAmerica MasterCard to pay the $48 you owe
them for the prepaid fuel card. Because that fuel card is a purchase at
a Speedway/SuperAmerica station, that $48 purchase is subject to the 4%
card rebate, too.

Bottom line: If you do it this way, you get a total of 8% off the price
of the gasoline you buy, and you don't even have to pay THAT until the
credit card bill comes due.

8% total discount amounts to 20 cents per gallon on $2.50 gasoline; not
bad.

"All the Above" is no hocus-pocus; I've been buying gasoline at
Speedway like that for many years now, and that's exactly how it works.
(Plus, you can sign up for the Speedy Rewards program in certain
markets and get points toward free merchandise or gasoline discounts.
The pre-paid fuel cards don't count as a purchase toward Speedy
Rewards, but it IS credited as a purchase when you actually use the
card's value to buy something, including gasoline.) BP

Regular gas, yesterday in Calgary, heart of the Canadian oil industry:
98.9 cents per liter, about $3.10 USD per U.S, gallon.

Edmonton is usually a few cents cheaper, as that's where the
refineries are.

One thing to remember:  high prices like these help keep high-cost
producers like the U.S. and Canada humming along, with lots of
exploration drilling and production activity. If the crude price
really tanks, there will be a big drop off in exploration, and
marginal wells will be shut in. End result: unemployment at home, and
a larger proportion of our fuel dollar going offshore.

I can look forward to a busy Winter, which means I get paid well, and
can in turn afford Studebaker parts. <G>
