We've been here 10 years, I remember one glorious day about 8 years ago when gas was down to 45c a liter. Those Were The Days.

Re: Gas prices
I put $100 in yesterday when it was at $1.28.9. Wish I had filled up now, it would have been another $30 or so but the price went to $1.40. Oh well, I drive a gas guzzler what do I expect????

The gas in town has gone up to $1.38.9. I fill up in the States (10 mins away) where it has gone down to 98.9c.

Re: Gas prices
Well, I guess racing down there before the prices go up does save you a bit -- but only once! Unless it goes down again. I guess we should keep our fingers crossed for the Gulf refineries getting up and running again soon. Or buy a bike.
