1941 : Gas rationing begins in eastern U.S.
Although the U.S. had not yet entered World War II at this time, gasoline rationing began in parts of the eastern United States on this day in 1941. The rationing would spread to the rest of the country as soon as the U.S. joined the Allied forces, and the production of cars for private use halted completely in 1942. Measures of a similar sort had already taken place in most European countries.
I'm commenting here on Stylin Doggies because you had to close comments on the post.
GREAT IDEA!!! I will pass this along...
If this takes off, have you thought about adding Halloween costumes and things for holidays?
