Well CNN is covering Atlanta/Marietta, and as bad as we have it at in TN/NC they're completely screwed. $4.19 a gallon and lines over an hour long.
Here we just have to drive past 10-15 stations with the trademark Plastic-Bag-Over-the-Pump-Handle until we find a station with $3.89-$3.99 gas (it'll be the one with 50 cars packed around it). Meanwhile, in Kansas, gas is $2.99 (which was a price I nearly shit my pants over, pre-Katrina, because I couldn't believe it was gonna get that high.) Not to get on a soapbox or anything, but Democrat or Republican or whatever, maybe this'll teach us not to vote TWO oil men into the White House from now on. |

Overall economy has had a little impact on my Joe-buying. But now that I am analyzing my spending habits and looking to budget after a crazy year (bought a house earlier this year), I will probably cut back. But it's a good tihng because I did go quite overboard!

I've just cut back on the number of trips I make going hunting for Joes and it gives me the money I need cause I save a lot from using less gas.

Uh yes it has. Figures are double last year's prices. gas wasted cuts into spending. Also groceries are more expensive so we have less cash.

I'm just glad the movie line is putting this series on hiatus. Gives us time to play catch up, save money for necessities, and plan on the future of the line.
I doubt many people here will be getting the movie line, unless they WOW us, but Hasbro's past has shown us, they don't know how to WOW anyone with movie lines. Except Star Wars. Even then, it's a bit ho hum. |

Think about this. Milk is average $4 a gallon. In most places $1 or $2 more than a year ago. Thats joe money there.
