“Even though gas prices have been declining since their peak in early September, consumers are still feeling the emotional and financial pinch, and they clearly see shopping online as a great way to conserve cash they spend on loved ones this holiday season.”
Bob Hayes
“Some analysts predict that we're at the peak of this winter's gas prices now.”
Fred Horne
“Prices remain on the rise but there is hope that we may be nearing a peak. Wholesale gas prices have averaged about $2.60 per gallon for the past week. Taxes add about 60 cents to that, transportation and dealer profit is another 5-10 cents. Prices in the L.A./Long Beach area could peak at $3.25-$3.30 by mid-May then they could decline after Memorial Day.”
Carol Thorp
“August, September and some of October tend to be our peak months. We are seeing some volume pickup, but it's not the kind of peak we've seen previously.”
Don Wylie
“This is really a resumption of the 22-cent decline since the peak price, back on May 21,”
Trilby Lundberg
“Fasten your seat belt -- peak hurricane season isn't until mid-September through mid-October, and we've had two hurricanes hit the Gulf Coast already.”
Deborah White
“In my view, prices had probably gone down too far, especially with peak demand winter season looming.”
