Just a survey question. Is the raise of gas prices helping or hurting your business ? BY what percentage?

[Quinn01]

Well im sure this is going to be moved but all Ill say is I know we complain about gas prices be so **** high but really we are the cheapest country as far as gas goes.

Right now Im paying some days 3.99 others 4.05 give or take. NJ is one of the cheapest states in the cheapest country.

You do what ya gotta do.

4.50 a gallon in north california. Dunno if its hurting my restaurant, i do know it's hurting my paycheck with my weekly commute jumping from $35 per week to $55.

I think it is hurting the smaller places rather than larger ones. I ran a small QSR this past year and when the price went up, we had to charge more for the end product which meant we lost ppl.

Now working for a larger place, we can get away with stuff because there are more outlets to use the food if we don't right away and we buy more ...more savings .

Hurting. cant deliver to customers

hurting, farmers have told me a round trip to STL costs $150.
local food now comes with a delivery fee attached.....and meat has a higher feed cost so pork can go up as much as 30% in the next two months.
MO gas is one of the cheapest in the USA, it's not broken $4 yet but lingers in the $3.80-3.99.....bizzare how the difference from station to station can be 10 cents a gallon.
