The hottest topic today is Gas. We all know that gas seems to go up higher during the weekend than during the week, but what has also become a real concern is how the prices vary for customers paying with credit cards. Personally, I have complained to my local gas stations about how I feel deceived by the prices that are advertised. Never before has there been a different price for people paying with credit than for those of us paying with cash. To me, it's a rediculous concept because if I am using a credit card, I am paying interest on that purchase, and the gas station gets it's money just like it were cash. Besides that, the tiny print that indicates the stipulation for paying with cash to get the lower price, is hardly legible. Just the other day, the gas station I went to had a cheaper price advertised in red for those people who were, not just paying in cash, but also purchasing a car wash! This has really gotten out of hand. The question now is if it's legal to change the prices this way, and also if it's a form of false advertising. We all want to get the best value for our money, but to lure us in with all types of fine print, and crazy stipulations, is beginning to piss me off.

On that same note, be sure to avoid stop and go traffic as much as possible to save gas. Also, keep up with your tire pressure. I just bought my daughter a tire pressure gauge and taught her how to use it. Underinflated tires can decrease tire pressure by 10%. I even read an article that goes into the new concept of inflating tires with Nitrogen in order to decrease leaks, increase tire life by 30% and allows you to go longer without refilling. Now more than ever, we need to do everything we can avoid wasting gas. Pink Bunny News Gossip Tips

If you get a chance to go to the movies, you'll see that there are 3 movies that are all the rage: Hellboy II, Meet Dave, and Journey to the Center of the Earth. If these types of movies are your cup of tea, you should have a good time. If not, there is still Sex and the City, Kit Kittredge, Wanted, Wall-E, and Hancock. A great tip to save money at the movies: Take in a matinee. It's usually cheaper, and less crowded. Pink Bunny News Gossip Tips
