Happy Labor Day! Gas Prices Still Falling

We can’t remember a Labor Day weekend when gas prices fell. Some reports are even saying road trips will be up this year specifically because of gas prices. But who really takes that spontaneous of a holiday trip?

Whatever your planning methods or holiday schedule, a national average gas price of $2.79 — according to AAA — is a good thing. Many people thought the sky was falling last month when prices were well above $3 a gallon. Now there’s word we could be nearer $2 by Thanksgiving, according to some analysts. We’re going to live firmly in the now and keep an eye either way.
