Articles labeled: high gas prices

Two Salt Lake City girls reached their final straw when their mom shut of Nickelodeon to save money because of rising fuel prices. So they decided to take their case to the streets.

Cable TV was one of the family’s budget-cutting casualties, leaving Sadie, 9, and her 7-year-old sister without their favorite cartoons and shows.

“Gas prices are too high,” Sadie said. “I just decided to come and protest so they’d go down.”

The girls marched through downtown Monday chanting and carrying signs made from old campaign signs.
