The Think Tank

I have been checking of and on for several weeks now and while the price of crude oil has been dropping steadily and the price of gasoline has been dropping steadily, fuel oil prices have been lagging behind and staying high.  Of course, it is getting cold and since prices are driven only by how bad the corporation can pillage consumers……… the prices stay high.

Good news:  On the 4th of November the prices had dropped from 3:47 g for 200 gallons to 3.44 at Pioneer Oil.  Last year in November I paid 3.49 a gallon for 200 gallons.  So that was an improvement, not a great improvement, but an improvement.  It was 3.42 gal for 400 gallons.  At Best Oil it was even better.  It was 3.38 gal for 200 gallons and 3.34 gal for 400 gallons.  Also if you order online at Best Oil you get 5 dollars off.

Today 8 November 2013 the price is better.  At Pioneer Oil for 200 gallons it was 3.33 per gallon.  For 400 gallons it was 3.31 per gallon.

At Best Oil it is cheaper:

200 gallons is 3.27 per gallon and for

400 gallons is 3.25 per gallon .  Much better

I guess it is almost time to order.  I will check on Monday to see if it changes.
