I'm jealous!!!
$3.23 here in Hilo today
But Matson recently reduced it's fuel surcharge to the Islands. That will help somewhat in the months ahead for food purchases. Also airlines have lowered fares substancially in the last 2 weeks although they are still keeping their first baggage charge.
Hawaii will never see gas under $2.00 a gallon....even at costco.
Oil dropped to $65.00 today and the stock market fell almost 500 points. I would have expected that everything would be on the plus side the day after an historic landslide presidental election.
The guess the only really "sure things" in this world are:
1) Death
2) Taxes
3) HELCO rate increases.
