Blog Trip Day 2 - Fill Up Your Tank



Today's day 2 and for our next pit stop topic, it's all about gas prices. Oh well, daily local evening news isn't complete without featuring oil companies' gas price increases (which is the usual trend) or rollbacks. I missed the news last night so I'm not just sure about the latest rates. From what I recall the unleaded gas cost when we tanked up last Sunday was about Php 56++/liter. The US dollar to peso conversion by the way is USD 1 = Php 46.29. With an ailing economy as our country's, it's definitely MUCH. It used to be just Php 25/liter not so many years back but with all the not so good economic factors, the price skyrocketed now to almost Php 60/liter and I'm sure, it'll shoot up more. This is the reason why we just go out and limit our malling on weekends to save on gas while hubby, instead of bringing our Green Machine to office which is just a stone's throw away anyway, just commutes.

I remember when gas was $.99 when I was in high school. What happened to the good old days? :)
