I have both but I am trying to really be a good girl this year and not just use it to use it.  I would take of 1-2 hrs here and there to go shopping or fishing or just go home.   It added up to where I had nothing at all. 

Plus if I don't use over 6 hrs of sick time in 3 months I get a bonus day (8 hrs pto) to do with as I see fit.  Add that to my bday off paid and I can get an extra 5 days a year. 

I plan on taking off 2 whole weeks around Christmas!!!!!!!    :hyper: :hyper: :hyper:  I think I want to go to Gatlinburg and stay.

Back above $3.50/gallon here at most stations.  Even the discount ones are $3.45-3.48.

Thanks, Barry.  Already way ahead of Gasbuddy.com's 2012 forecast.

I saw on the news, that the average national price is $3.48, but that prices could go up as much as 60 cents by summer.  Of course they are blaming it on middle east tensions, not President Bush Obama.

And just foments the tensions in the Middle East? Who supports the muzzie terrorists who create any shortages?

Try again.  75 cents higher by MAY, and if the Iranians start getting froggy, bet on $5/gal by then.

As I said in another thread, if gas gets that high, Obama doesn't stand a chance of being reelected.  His refusal to allow for more exploration in the US, coupled with the Keystone XL pipeline refusal, will doom him.

I saw this on Drudge, from ABC:

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/gas-prices-spike-60-cents/story?id=15519576

Gas prices to spike 60 cents or more by May
