 Wednesday, February 10th . . . Line Dancing Class !

"Sue M" Teaching Line Dancing !Hey Gang,-we have found a spot for the line dance class that some of you wanted me to do.   We call it giggles and shakes in Florida because we do a lot of laughing when we mess up the steps.  The Lincoln Recreation Department is letting us use the Father Biledeau Center, Pollard Road, Lincoln.  You will need to wear comfortable clothing as you will get quite warm doing this class.  Wear short sleeves and maybe shorts as it is a very good work out.  We will be doing classes from 6 PM to 7:30 PM.  We will do some stretching and warm ups first and then dancing straight through to the end of the time.  Bring water to hydrate and bring dry sneakers to do the dancing in so you don't slip on the floor.  If you know of someone that might be interested just bring them.  Hope to see you there.
                                                                                                                 
Sue

 Gas Prices . . . Our Latest Survey !

Gas PumpThis latest gas survey, taken 13:00AM, Saturday, February 6, 2010, shows gas prices moderating.   At the time of this latest survey Wayne's Citgo station in North Woodstock posted the lowest prices in the area.  However, Flying Fifties should check-out the  Notch Express Irving station next to Sport Thoma on Route 3 in North Lincoln which provides a special discount to members.  Pump your gas than show your 2009-2010 Flying Fifties membership card and receive $0.20 off the posted price per gallon for a cash purchase or $0.15 off the posted price per gallon for a credit card purchase.    Click here for actual posted pump prices in Lincoln-Woodstock area as of this latest survey. 


 

 Want To Also Save Money On Washing Your Car ?

Rumor has it that the new touchless car wash located next to the Notch Express Irving Station (that provides the $0.20 per gallon discount to the "Flying Fifties") has a secret code that will automatically result in $2.00 off for a car wash.  Simply punch in the five digit code 13690 in the key pad before you pay and you'll get the car wash for $2.00 less!  (Don't worry, this is not illegal . . . we were asked to pass the word about this code around by an employee of the car wash.)

Some Energy Advice For The Winter ?

1. Here are some useful facts to keep in mind:
  The amount of heat contained in a gallon of #2 fuel oil is 139,000 BTU.
  The amount of heat contained in a gallon of kerosene is 134,000 BTU.
  The amount of heat contained in a gallon of propane is 91,600 BTU.
  The amount of heat contained in a kilowatt-hour of electricity is 3,413 BTU.

2. To compare the cost of heat from a gallon of fuel oil verses a gallon of propane you need to multiply the cost of the propane by 139,000/91,600 or 1.52.

3. To compare the cost of heat from a gallon of fuel oil verses electricity you need to divide the BTU's contained in a gallon of fuel oil by the BTU's contained in a kilowatt hour of electricity then multiply by the cost of a kilowatt hour of electricity, e.g. 143,000 / 3,413 X $0.18755 or $7.86 !  (NHEC price used.) Would you still like to have an electric car?

4. Check out "heating degree day" data from NOAA to estimate how much fuel you should have burned year over year by clicking here.
