Here is a fun topic
What is the price of a gallon/litre of gas where you live
Its 129.9 cents per litre in Kelowna B.C but SPIKING to 142.9 in the next day or so.......:yikes:
Thats $4.91 going to $5.40 a U.S Gallon ( multiply by 3.78 ) for all my American friends ;)

It won't lower your blood pressure at all; but you won't care! :roflblack:
GASMAN,
No worries; I think everybody is a bit worried about this, so it's not a bad thing if we get a little bit of duplication in here once in a while... :thumbup:
I saw a sign at a convience store that said: "Liqour is cheaper than therapy".Quote:

It's looking more and more like "what the market will bear" is the price.
There appear to be no regulations about arbitrarilly raising prices.
The petroleum companies always have 50 vague reasons for the price hike of the day
Same kind of deal for Alaska--we are producing about 7% of the oil used in the US. We have two refineries in the state. We and Hawaii still have some of the highest gasoline prices in the US.
I paid $4.49 for premium yesterday. My car demands it unfortunately. $4.29 for regular.
Taxes..... To help pay for our "free healthcare"Quote:

just went up around here to1.18/litre, what are you gunna do, BITCHIN and moaning wil not change things, either pay the price or park the ride. Heck my truck has a 135 litre tank, you think that does not hurt. Just suck it up.....
We mhave to reduce our reliance on foreign oil to reduce prices.......but the US is exporting oil products , less consumption will lower prices.....we had to raise prices because we weren't selling enough . Face it folks....oil companies are free to do what they want and will keep doing it. Big oil has big handouts and politicians have big pockets . Record profits for them the last couple of years yet they still get huge tax breaks and subsidies. Those who have get more and the rest of us get screwed.
Like the old joke says: Tie the price of a bushel of our wheat to the price of their oil. If they dont like the price tell them to eat their oil.
Excellent Question , one all Canadians keep asking. Excuse the oil companies are using today is that they are switching from winter to summer gas. :yikes:Quote:

And don't forget state taxes! On our ryde last weekend, gas on the NC side of the border was 3.88/gallon. On the SC side, it was 3.53. Naturally, I live in NC, and way too far from the border to go to SC for fuel.
We should Nationalize the oil companies:gaah:. And while we are at it the healthcare system too.:yikes:
Nationalising is a slippery slope, I don't think any of us want to go there.Quote:

Now they are talking putting State Troopers on the border to catch people crossing border to collect sales taxes because N.H. has no sales tax. We pay sales tax on drinking water. Only necessities are exempt ???
