AAFES Is Lowering Gas Prices!

Excellent...

As of tonight, I see that the average price of gas in the States is $2.20 per gallon.

AAFES announced it's new prices for Germany and they're lowering the price to:

$2.38 per gallon


(In truth, when one takes into account octane differences (and few people do), the equivalent is being lowered to $2.492 per gallon.)

These are roughly 23.2 cent per gallon reductions, and AAFES says that they overrode their normal pricing policy (which again highlights that there is a PROBLEM with that policy, but that's for another day.)

On a personal note, since every day it seems like we'll STILL be here in November, it's nice to know I'll be paying less by about 23 cents per gallon. Considering the amount of gas I go through, it'll be a nice savings. At least, until I can get to the $1.93 per gallon (source: GasPriceWatch.com) in the Ft. Eustis area.

Yippee!
