Cheap Gas

You'd Better Watch Out...

 Sanity Clause is Coming to Town

As you can tell, gas prices just over the bridge are much cheaper than in, say, Falmouth. Even reindeers are making the hajj.

 I can save you the lengthy research by telling you that every station on the Cranberry Highway has regular unleaded for $1.65/gallon... even the full-serves. I did see one station at $1.79, but the locals tell me that he just has a gas station to draw people into his mechanic's business.

Once we were done bothering Mrs. Marcotte for pictures of her Reindeer Car, we shifted over to another car that had Clover the Bulldog in it. Clover was rocking his Patriots jersey, getting ready for today's game against Oakland.

For a cookie or two, he was good enough to pose for us.

As if we didn't have enough fun at the gas station, the third car we encountered was a guy with 2 generators and 5 propane containers in his truck. We asked him what section of town he was camping in.

"I just escaped New Hampshire this morning.... this (Wareham) was as far south as I had to drive to get a generator. I only got it because the guy at Home Depot chased me down in the parking lot to inform me that a shipment had just arrived. I figure I can sell then other one for 5 times the price up in the White Mountains."
