Today is your day Boomer! What's up with the price of gas? Just what we need as our post-COVID world opens up again, we see fuel prices heading close to the 2 dollar/litre plateau! And as Boomers, we are big fuel consumers. We have boats, RVs, big trucks, and other recreational units like ATVs and motorcycles......so, I see alot of grumpy faces at the gas station. What about that cross-Canada RV trip you were planning this fall with your spouse? What about prices for airline and cruise tickets? Will they rise? Will you still go? What a bummer! OK.....what to do about it? (1)When the US border reopens, buy your gas there. (2)Use your Air Miles to help subsidize the high price. (3) Buy a small electric car, scooter, or bike for short trips around town. (4)Buy a more fuel-effecient vehicle(ie. a compact car instead of a SUV) (5)Walk and bike more than drive; it is good for you. (6) Downsize from two vehicles to one and carpool more. It is a fact of life Boomers. Fuel is going up, like vegetables. We have to adjust. Cheers!
