Mr. Stefani · 03-20-2005, 07:02 PM

REGULAR. I paid almost $40 to fill my tank today. Such crap.

*MIBabe03* · 03-20-2005, 07:05 PM

Wow! Down here the lowest is about $1.95. I don't think we've reached $2.00 yet though.

AllIWantIsYourClutch · 03-20-2005, 07:55 PM

Yep....$2.19 here.

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 03-20-2005, 08:00 PM

I'm never going to drive.

TheHappyBurgerMeister · 03-20-2005, 08:01 PM

Today is was like $2.29 here!

The Modfather · 03-20-2005, 08:27 PM

On my way home from Florida today I saw it for $2.99 (regular!)

TripperFan · 03-20-2005, 10:52 PM

I WISH!!!

Up here in Canada for the last week its been an average of 85 cents a liter (regular - 95 cents for premium) - which converts to $3.22 a U.S. gallon!!!

BRUTAL! These guys are worse than organized crime and get away with it.

i dont think it converts to QUITE that high (not that it isn't ridiculous though)

0.85 cdn = 0.71 usd http://www.bankofcanada.ca/en/exchform.htm

multiply by 3.7854 to convert liters to gallons = $2.69

K - you're right - forgot the exchange. Although most wages aren't entirely compensated up here to their U.S. counterparts. (i.e. - sounds like we may earn more for the same job description within the same company, but it's not quite up to par). Plus you should see the additional income taxes we're getting laced with. Our standard of living is going right in the dumper.

Too bad I'm not in the far north - I'd be back to using sleddogs!!

Consider yourself lucky.

$1.93 here for unleaded ethanol, $1.99 unleaded, $2-something for premium.

Glad I don't have a fancy premium only car.

Mr. Stefani · 03-21-2005, 01:01 PM

$2.33 at the Exon today. Glad I filled it up yesterday.

Well screw that. Now it's $2.05 unleaded ethanol. Stupid ^%$@*&!#%

TripperFan · 03-21-2005, 04:26 PM

And I heard on the news today that they're warning us not to look for any breaks on gas prices for the next three years!!! Beautiful!!

As if our wages will keep up the same. This is bringing back memories of how the "gas shortage" started in the mid-seventies.
