OPEC, (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) have just announced they are planning to slash oil production by more than 1.6 million barrels a day, starting in May. Get Ready for higher gas prices.

There just may be a better day of the week to gas up to save a little money.

Gas prices are on their way up.

Like autumn leaves, gasoline prices are falling. It's been subtle, but have you noticed regular unleaded gas now averages $3.46 a gallon? That's the lowest national average since January, and 35 cents less than year-ago levels. Prices are expected to drop another 20 to 25 cents in the coming weeks.  I can't wait!

That September drop you were expecting for gasoline prices? Don't hold your breath. Currently, gasoline averages $3.55 a gallon nationally, down from $3.63 a month ago. Most analysts expected a drop to about $3.40 by early fall, as seasonal demand slumps after the summer driving season. Now, some forecasters predict a short-term spike of up to 10 cents a gallon.
