]]> Have you filled up on gas lately? It’s almost exciting. Well, not really, but still I was happy to see that prices have dipped below $4.00.  Does that mean that we can go back to driving normally? Does that mean SUV’s will have a  chance again to make it off the lot?  The AAA claims that gas might drop another 25 cents a gallon by the time Labor Day comes around. I’m not holding my breath yet, but I am going to be running to the gas station. Here are a few good deals around the area:
  •  $3.94 at the Chevron located at N. Military and Community
  • If you live a little further south, Sunoco at 2500 Forest Hill Blvd and Florida Mango is $3.96
  • $3.95 at Valero on Woolbright and Federal Highway 
  • $3.97 at Coastal 199 NW 20th St & NW 2nd Avenue in Boca
  • $3.89 at the Hess on Andrews Avenue N. of Oakland Park Blvd
  • $3.89 at the Citgo on 7907 NW 6th Avenue
