Current gas prices range from $4 to $5 a gallon depending on where you live. Discounts are non-existent or no longer available to drivers. I have spoken to several baby boomers and they said “it has never been this bad”. Many Americans are struggling just to make ends met and driving is now seen as a luxury. What can we do to ease the pain at the gas pump?
First, I recommend writing your congressman and the White House and demand lower gas prices. Also, write the major oil companies such as BP, Shell and ExxonMobil and demand they lower their gas prices. Second, reduce trips to the gas pump by rolling the windows down instead of using the car air conditioner, combine nearby trips on the same day, buy or trade in your gas-guzzler for a more fuel-efficient car. Third, you can comparison shop by using sites such as GasBuddy or MSN to find the cheapest gas in your area.
A fourth option is to buy gas and locked in prices at the GasLockedin website. The program was created by AGRP along with advertisers and is called the National Gasoline Relief Program designed to reduce gas prices. You may have seen the commercial offering gas at $2.49 per gallon. Many car dealerships are offering gas at $2.99 a gallon for a period of time in exchange for buying a car.
The AGRP is a much better deal because each advertised offer covers the difference of the national price of gas to $2.49 a gallon with 15 gallons per offer. A gas card is sent within 7 days of finishing all requirements. This program requires your participation in any advertiser program of your choice in exchange for the gasoline. This program is available in approximately 97% of the country. All you have to do is enter your zip code to see if the program is offered in your area. Good luck on your search for cheaper gas!
