GASED

Well, You can pretty much say good bye to the rest of this season.
Gas hit $4.15 here.

Retail is done.

Went to get a load of gift items yesterday, Gas was $3.87 when I left. Cost me $125.00 to fill up this morning. Bye Bye profit.

Re: GASED

supply and demand...as in OPEC supplies you the gas and demands $5 a gallon.

Why can't you think of a business that works like that?

Re: GASED

Oil is down almost $14 and were still paying $4.15. Stop filling up ! Only put in what you need , That will drop the price.

Re: GASED

IMO, all part of Obama plan to kill off small business. Not only tanning, but ALL small business. I have a T-shirt biz and internet cafe...two fun businesses that always paid its way..but down since gas went up, and we have an administration that does nothing about it, but blame the past.

Time for a revolution in this country and give control back to the people..

Re: GASED

What really gets me is that there is NO reason for it. Its simply the rich ripping off the little guys. Small biz gets coming and going.

It cost me $40 to and back from one store.

Not only does it make clients refraine from spending, But our cost go up too. Got my bill for for waste removle this month, extra $10 for a fuel charge.

And how about your employees ? Min wage ? $80 to fill their tanks ? Why come to work.
