In reality, it is hurting EVERYBODY. Not just the lawnturds and fertturds.
I spent over 3000.00 last month on fuel..... Oh well, just part of the game..........

Why you whining over 70.00 bux.........Hell, you gross over 1 grand a day solo and pay part time helpers under the table when you need them.........You ought to be rollin in the dough...............

It's a conspiracy and George Bush is at the lead. Has anyone noticed everything in this world has gone to chit since this fool has been in office.

Hell, I told the mortgage company to come get my house, I'm not paying them anymore! Least I'll save $2k per month so I can put gas in my mowers!

We're already at $3.95 here.

Just try to upsell some extra services to your customers. That will easily make up for the gas prices if it's priced just a little higher. You're already at their property, so do something extra a few times per year and you should be good to go. Especially if the lawn sizes aren't huge.

We are at 3.95. So far i have switched to 4 day work weeks for the hourly guys, I raised my prices this year, and am padding the upsells. Working on more ideas, but i am still thinking through them.

3.75 here as of last evening, when I was going to work it was at 3.69.

Sucks to say the least.
