Yesterday was a record breaking day in Louisville. In case you didn't come out of the house yesterday, nor turned on the TV, gas prices jumped to a record high of $3.39 a gallon in Louisville. Everybody you talked to was hacked off - and rightly so. Gas was over 35 cents more per gallon than it was a week ago. Or even a day ago. I don't know what the true reason is - I'm sure it has something to do with the refineries or global warming or the coming spring elections.
With gas prices at an all-time high in Louisville, our friendly Krogers are doing their part - in today's Curious Journal, Krogers had a full page ad reminding people that if they use their Krogers card, they can get 3 cents off per gallon at the Krogers gas stations. Well whoop-tee-doo. With gas inching towards three and a half bucks a gallon, like 3 cents off a gallon is going to make any difference? Nice try, Krogers, but it doesn't work. Three cents less beats paying three cents more, but when gas prices are so high right now, that doesn't seem to matter. Maybe they'd be better off giving us three cents off per gallon of milk.
