natural gas

[Taggart]

So, I'm moving into an apartment soon that uses natural gas. I can get a variable price or fixed contract. For all of those out there that use gas, are you using the variable or fixed? Is this a good time to lock in the fixed or not? I'd appreciate any enlightenment Thanks.

It's a roll of the dice. A couple years ago, I locked in just before the prices skyrocketed. Damn, I was happy about that, but I didn't plan it. The last time I had a chance to lock in, I opted for the lowest price supplier at the variable rate. I usually suck at these types of decisions, so you might want to do the opposite.
