Gas price wars

http://www.fuelmeup.com

Become a soldier in the battle to lower gasoline prices. FuelMeUp is a free site where, ideally, a consumer will be able to plug in a ZIP code and find out the gas prices for area stations. But it needs drivers to go online and post the prices they most recently paid. With enough contributors, this could become an effective way to fight back against the oil companies. In addition, the site is offering monthly prizes to the most active contributors. (back)
