During the pandemic when gasoline was cheap, I thought about driving my motorhome to Costco to fill its 55-gallon tank, even though I had no plan for any trip. It was just to hoard some gas.
I decided against it. Even if I saved $2/gal, it's only $110. The gas may go stale, and it's not easy to retrieve it via siphoning to transfer to my cars. And the $110 is minuscule compared to the loss of value of my investable assets, and the then health worry from Covid. Can't worry about little things like $110.
