you went to the wrong place, its all 1.34 on Mcleod road
Filled up today Old Superstore Dewdney and Albert 103.3 Booyah
I haven't even used 1/4 tank since last Wed before the mass insanity really started. 82KMs and counting since last fill.

Of course, I've considered it mass insanity that we were paying over 90 cents/L to begin with. At least I got to move to the house FOR FREE! BOOYAH! :lol:

The world as we know it is starting to change.....imagine now $2tre is closer tan $1 a liter was a few years ago.......with over 0.40 raise in gas price in just a few days the $2ter is NOT that far away!

I think as soon as gas hits $2ter i'll be taking the GO train even if it takes an extra 1 1/2 hours, the savings will definetly be there.

Lot's of people will be doing alot of public transit when that happens. which hopefully will be a good thing for one reason, Supply and demand, that SHOULD I say should bring gas prices down if a LOT of people stopped buying gas. My hopes/dreams anyways.
133.9 last time I saw it in Burlytown...
Hahahahah...128.5/L by my house in teh country....

DEALS EVERYWHERE I TELLS YEH!! :rolleyes:
Someone start a new website: Bitch and Whine about Gas Prices.

BTW you can lock your gas caps, but that won't stop me from drilling the cheap gas out of the bottom of your little gas tank. :P
The tech for new fuels is out there, but theres too much money in oil to bring out those techs for a few more decades. The thing that pissed me off is that when I got in line for gas the other night at like 1.20, as I got closer to the pump they were changing the prices, at one stage it was 1.25, then 1.22, then 1.19 all I could do was curse lol it ended up being 1.23.
Still cheaper than public transit for me. Work is 3km away and I have free parking at Yonge & St. Clair. I have the option of walking, bicycle or transit* too. Any work related inter city travel like Hamilton is $.042/km. Right now driving is cheaper and I don't stink by the time I get to work.

I haven't had to buy gas for either car since camping a week ago and at pre-hurricane prices. Wanna bet prices drop after what is usually "the biggest road travel weekend of the year"

You 905'ers may think you are saving money living where you do but people like darkpuppet and I are laughing at you. I figure if I lived at my mom's old house in Mississauga I'd spend an extra $500/month in gas alone not to mention wear and tear like tires. Take your monthly rent/mortgage and see how much closer to the city that gets you.

* didn't York Region start a new mass transit system this weekend?

Funny thing is, I live in Mississauga, less than 3km from work with the Focus and I can make the run in under ten minutes. If I tried doing it by public transit though that ten minute trip would turn into a 40 minute one because of the spectacularly piss-poor connections on Mississauga Transit (and that's assuning I don't break my ankle or blow out my knee on the non-lowered floor buses that Mississauga transit still runs <_<)

I like where I live thanks, a minute from Square One by car and less than 5 from the 403 :lol:

Mississauga Transit :rolleyes: I remember those days, big part of the reason I packed up and left.

and they still insist on shutting down the majority of their Sunday service @ 11pm. They must figure all the good little boys & girls will be in bed, just like Grandma Hazel wants them to be <_<

Well, North Bay and Sudbury now have the highest prices for fuel in Ontario.

Ontario Gas Prices

God this sucks...
prices are going down here in windsor
prices were dropping overnite, it was reported as low as 1.12 today.. from 1.22 last nite. not bat eh?
It's still disgusting... paying more than 80-85 cents/L is disgusting, and 85 itself is still bad.
1.05 here in the west end of Ottawa!

Why the hell did I fill up at 1.21 a couple nights ago. $57 to fill my car is just crazy!!!
