The economy is tanking, the stock market is plunging and recovery appears years in the making.
But, hey, gas in Rowan County dropped to $2.99 a gallon in some places today!
“They’re working me to death,” said a cashier who answered the phone at Mikey’s, a convenience store at the intersection of Main Street and Roseman Road across from the N.C. Highway Patrol station south of Salisbury.
Mikey’s was one of a few places in the county where gas was selling for $2.99 a gallon, a price that hasn’t been seen since … well, for several weeks, anyway.
