Price of gas update...

Re: Price of gas update...
After the spike of a couple of weeks ago, prices are all over the place, most are $2.099 but others are at various prices between $2.019 and $2.069, a few have slipped below $2.00. I suspect that "the Thanksgiving Effect" might be keeping prices hugher and that they will slip again in about ten days.

You are fortunate to have a competitive market. Refineries have been a NIMBY issue on the West coast for 30 years. As an example Oregon does not have a single refinery. 140 refineries in the US, Oregons population ranks 27th. All gasoline must move north from central/north California, or south from the Puget sound. Not much competition.
The native station will usually be 1 cent less, but it's a bit out of the way, and the savings is not worth the extra drive, for a full tank from empty it would be a like a whole 43 cent savings.
1.17 per liter CAD$ yesterday. (4.44 CAD per US Gal approx 3.33 USD$)

We have a couple city's around who require pump jockey's and don't let you pump, luckily it's not province wide. Gas in those regions are the same cost though, they generally have 1 person handling all the pumps, and one person inside, so no increase in staffing, just longer waits to get gas which is good reason to avoid those city's.
