Outlaw; I wish. I actually have a local quickie oil change place change my oil that has coupons so I can save some cash on it. (We do not have the equipment to do it ourselves; to do it properly you not only need a jack (which we have) but also platforms to put your wheels on so you can get all the old oil out. Not to mention 'Neko hasn't done it in years, since my dad's old Toyota truck. Not to mention we really don't have a level place to do it; heck where I park my car is dirt! and the main driveway slants just a little bit.) I just hope the cost does not go up too much :/

I just don't think it's worth it to get a bunch of oil when you have no good way to change your own oil.

[Edit] Seems like at this time they're adding like a 6 buck surcharge for now. I pray it don't get worse.

Picking up where Friday left off I see.

Inflation jumped for a third consecutive month as the Iran war continued to drive up prices in May, surpassing 4% for the first time in three years. The reading matched economists' expectations.

Prices rose 4.2% in May compared to a year earlier, increasing 0.5% from the prior month, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data showed.

Speaking in the Oval Office on Wednesday, President Donald Trump dismissed price concern raised by the government report, saying, "No, I love it. The numbers were great."

"You know what I really love? I love the inflation," Trump added, saying prices would fall after the resolution of the Iran war. Trump said that millions of barrels of oil were being exported from the Middle East.

You're not going to post the rest of the quote where he declares that the US has been stealing the oil from the seized Iranian tankers?

[Mertron]

are the chips made of beef?

[Tymon]

About? Chips have gone through the fucking roof. It costs like $7.79 for a bag of Doritos here. I haven't bought anything in the chips aisle in at least 2 years.

May God help Rusty and every fucking moron stupid enough to nod their head and agree with that statement.

Democrats make inflation by giving people money during COVID.

Republicans make inflation by starting random wars.

lol@democrats.

[kuronosan]

Except Trump was the one who started the COVID checks.
