Gas station at the corner by our place of work selling gas for $2.50 gal today from 7:00AM to 9:00 AM. Promotion by Michigan International Speedway. Hundreds of cars lined up 4 abreast going around the block. I counted 6 police cars with flashers going trying to keep order and keeping people circling the block who were trying to get into line. People were in line at 3:00 AM.
Let's see, average car holds about 18 gals. Assume you've got a gallon or 2 in the tank. Saving about $1.25/gal x 16 = $20 savings.

People are nuts and it's a sad commentary on life in America.
