Whether you hate dealing with the gas station or you have no problem with filling up, chances are you grow frustrated from time to time over the massive fluctuations that can occur in fuel pricing. Fortunately, gas prices
appear to be stable nationwide right now, with the average nationwide retail price rising by only a penny over the past week, and actually down nine cents over this week last year. However, whether gas prices are stable in your neighborhood can be questionable.
For instance, gas prices in the Los Angeles area
rose sharply this week, but in other towns, they decreased slightly. You can manage the fluctuating prices with a few clever apps. For example,
GasBuddy is a great way to track prices in your area as well as other towns, if you're on the go. However, you can still trust the old standby of listening to your local DJ announce great prices...or just buy a hybrid to keep your fuel costs low.
