From: TheHorror on 1 Nov 2009 17:33 I was getting tired of hearing about "deflationary pressures" and the "lack of inflation", when all the stuff I buy was going up. Well, finally I saw a price DROP on something I buy. Motor oil went from $9.50 for a 5 quart bottle down to $8.00 !!! Woowee !! Not kidding.

Sounds like a deal and maybe it was a one time deal at that. The price of oil is not going to go down long term. Hate to burst your deflation bubble. The oil producers are going to get your cash one way or another.
