When I walked down to our marina a couple weeks ago they still had the gas price at $4.29. Something tells me we won't get below $3.00 this summer.Went down to the boat today and spent two-plus hours cleaning the deck. Man was it dirty. Then some friends joined us for a cruise. We stopped at the fuel dock and I noticed the price was $2.79.9. I called the fuel supplier--he's a former client of mine and asked when they were going to fill the tank and I politely suggested the new diesel was going to be cheaper than the old price. I told him I was going to take on about 400 gallons and would wait for a better price.
He called me back in a few minutes and said they were going to lower the price tomorrow to $2.06.7 tomorrow but if I took on 400+ gallons today he'd give me the lower price. We pumped in 367 gallons and the pump shut off. We had drained the tank down to below the fuel pickup. I called 'em back and they said they would give me the lower price and let me know when they refilled the tank.
Now THAT is the kind of customer service I like. I saved $268 and change by making that phone call and I'll probably take on another 100 gallon when they fill the tank.
