    Can someone fill me in if they know please?!
    Last week I was getting $8.00/100#, January 30 2015 price dropped to $5.00/100#!

    Does anyone know if it's gonna go back up anytime soon, or estimated time it will be this low?
    I believe it's a lack of international demand on top of the large supply . Gas prices will move in correlation to metal demand . This will be the case for at least the next 6 months from what I have read/hear.

    Ok thanks for the info. All my yard staff would say is "we don't know when it will go up".
    Scary stuff lol
    And yes the gas being $1.95/gal is nice, but $12+/ 100# is nicer!
    I usually drain known good gas from recent vehicles. ��
