[QUOTE="Fudged Undies, post: 801755, member: 57548"] Not really sure how this conserves (fuel). The extra roundtrip won't make much difference as now people will have a three day weekend. At least in my case, I use as much if not more, gas on the weekends than/as I do during the work week. If everyone that will now work a four day week will be staying home and not driving, I see the potential benefit. I just don't think that's going to happen. Makes me think that will encourage people to do more since now they have a three day weekend and there will be a desire to do things and not be bored at home. Personally, I don't think this has anything to do with s/d. This is just a lull, as there has been for the past few months prior to another gouge. I've been finding 3.99 for the past week or two but not at stations adjacent to heavy traffic streets. I still don't really see how four, 10hr a-day weeks will conserve fuel. You're still working 40hrs a week. That one extra trip MAY make a difference for folks that are extremely careful with there spending and count every penny, but for many/most of us it won't make much difference should we fall into the four day week.
