Really, on gasoline? Well, if you follow the markets oil is down $7 a barrel since the end of January.

@CougarLisa it’s reflective at the pump!
Seen nothing but increased the prices at the pumps since January to now.
But everything has a bright spot, less people working means more gas on the market.

@Briggett That chart is the crude market price. January 20th is selected and anyone with eyes can see where the price has gone. The reflection at the pump is down where I live.
Briggett · T
@CougarLisa I’m waiting for it come back to 2.62 around here like it was before the 20 of January.
CougarLisa · 36-40, F
@Briggett talk to the oil companies and your local stations. As the chart shows those companies are paying about $6 less a barrel since January 20th.

@CougarLisa you can hit me up anytime in the future when prices fall below 2.50 a gallon in middle America. And hold on to your comment until then.
I’ll be right until the prices at the pump proves me I’m wrong.

@CougarLisa yeah I guess that you burn crude oil in your car. You might have a point but I talk price at the. Oh by the way let me when you figure out the difference between crude oil and it’s refined cousin gasoline.
CougarLisa · 36-40, F
@Briggett the crude oil price is the standard for petroleum based products; it has been for over 100 years! Oh, by the way, let me know when you understand how markets work!
Briggett · T
@CougarLisa so translate that into gasoline price is being up?
So what is argument?
So if you’re relating as crude oil prices rise, gasoline prices typically rise as the cost of raw materials increases so the bottom line is cost of crude oil increases as the associated costs of gasoline. And if that doesn’t make sense to you can’t help you with that it’s absolutely about the price at the pump.
You try your best to spin any way you can or want, but these are just the facts.
So when you can understand the above statement, are flogging a dead horse with your own arguments.
I’m here and I’m right until you prove me wrong.
Stick a fork in it I’m done with

@Briggett You jumped into the conversation spreading lies. Then you said not to talk to you until whatever... now you want me to explain a simple market fundamental...lol... you can't make this stuff up! The price of gasoline is impacted by many factors; winter additives, taxes and the market you are in. You could also be seeing some price gouging. Even price fixing is not out of the question.
I've been to Arizona and California. I've stood on a bridge in Arizona where just a half mile away I could see fuel prices nearly twice as high as the stations in Arizona.
I shouldn't have to explain this to you unless you are a child with zero experience in life. The fundamentals are the same; the price of oil dictates the price of all petroleum related products... that includes gasoline!
Do a Google search!
You're argument, if you can call it that, is based on your emotions and nothing more. The reality is the chart I've now posted twice that you seem incapable of understanding.

@CougarLisa no matter how many ways you spin it it comes down this: Higher crude oil price = higher prices at the pump
If get string of weeks when crude oil prices are low could sometimes = lower prices at the pump because of crude selling for less. And sometimes they feel like passing down the price difference to the consumer. Now google that.

@Briggett I didn't read your delusional dribble. I don't know if you agreed (probably not) or disagreed. I don't know anything about you other than the previous posts and I'm not interested in knowing anymore.
Get a life, get a clue, and learn how to balance your checkbook! Facts TRUMP your emotions and delusions.

@CougarLisa oh so I in just a few short very sentences you found yourself agreeing with me on high crude oil prices causes everything relative, being more expensive including gasoline, if follow your line of reasoning, right.
The reason why I’m right because you had resort to name calling in attempting to make your case.
But what I’m enjoying is the somebody’s going read your posts and probably will have the same opinion as mine and wonder why.

@CougarLisa I bet oil companies keep that seven dollar they saved that they get at bargain prices and didn’t pass any of it on to us consumers.
CougarLisa · 36-40, F
@Briggett I'm invested in two oil companies! See, rather than cry like you, I get money from them. It did not bother me when oil goes up in price even though I drive a big SUV that gets 18 mpg... it's inconsequential to me!
CougarLisa · 36-40, F
@Briggett I don't agree with you on anything... that much I'm sure of. Fitting into a world riddled with mental illness is not a sane decision.
Briggett · T
@CougarLisa Inconsequential to you so like you haven’t given any about anyone else but yourself and people who think like you think.
We will see as the days go past by driving that big SUV!
Came in 6 months and reread all of your comments and we’ll talk more about it then.
I’m out!!!!!!

@Briggett I'm not reading your replies. Why should I? You are not capable of understanding a basic chart.
I bet you work at Starbucks...lmao...

@CougarLisa I’m a shipping and receiving clerk at the local recycling center.
So now I see that you have been trying a bit of sport about me;You been hinting around me or thinking something about me. What I’m asking, here’s your perfect opportunity or/chance for you to say what you thinking about me. You’re really a petty person, shameless and shallow human being. The who’s doing anything and everything just to get attention.

@CougarLisa strange the price of has been dropping for over a few weeks and the prices of gas somehow keeps on rising.
Don’t see the producers passing on to the public. So it proves what I’ve been saying all along.
Drill baby drill may it live on😂

@CougarLisa
No, it's not inconsequential, bc your higher gas prices are reducing your net profits in that area.
If you used a more fuel-efficient vehicle, you'd have higher net profits from oil.
Sheesh
