Have you SEEN THE GAS PRICES???

NewbietoRPGs · 08-31-2005, 04:09 PM

My husband just looked outside his office window and watched the gas station across the street change to price to 3.09 a gallon for the cheap stuff!!
Will this ever end?

Over a $1.00/litre here in Canada. Translates to almost $4.50/gallon.

It's 3.84 a gallon over here (if my litre to gallon conversion is correct...).
Edit- Yeah, Zebodogs is probably more accurate. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

This is just getting out of hand. Good thing we don't have to drive anywhere anytime soon.

Ah yes, US gallon. I was using 4.4L = 1 gallon, but that's for a standard gallon. Why can't we all use metric?

It's almost a $1.20/litre in Vancouver when I was there last.

$2.74 here.. they are scared.. but a barrel of oil went down in the last hr, and stocks went up 1.4 pts. strange.

I think they'll cap the prices if they reach $3.50. (hope).

God, the French Quarter is on fire right now. a footlocker that was looted, on fire in the french quarter.

Relatively speaking, I think it's still quite inexpensive compared to some Eastern and European nations. I could be wrong, though.

Ah well you US peeps still have it easy - us poor UK suckers currently pay £0.90 per litre = £4.05 per gallon = $7.30!!!!

The price jumped 8 cents pr. litre for some companies here. That makes the price app. 10.44DKK. 6 crowns is $1. A bit of math.
10.44/6 = 1.74 $/L
1.74*3.84 = 6.69 $/Gal.
I can get decent red wine cheaper than that.
