oohhh ohhhh ohhh thats cheaper! do you also coincide it with a trip to Costco for the beer? Is it worth a ride out to do the two? We've got a party coming up and the hubby's 8 litre gaz guzzler could do with a fill up?

The beer is certainly cheaper at the Kirkland Boutique...however, the selection is pretty limited towards the big brands that are often low on character and overall flavour...if you want good prices on beer head to Aylmer..there are a couple of deps there that are often in a real price war.

My summer football team captain buys the teams beer at Costco and it works out cheaper for us all.

If it's not the weather people moan about, it's the price of bloody petrol. What next? Cheese? Flight Prices from b^ttf^ck nowhere in Canada to the UK? Car Insurance? Where will it end? :thumbdown:

It's to do with the refinery costs amongst other things - US reserves are at a 22 month low and there is a potential refinery shutdown in Mississippi due to flood warnings. Ontario & Quebec receive most of their gasoline from the US. Western provinces are on a different supply network, they were saying on the news this morning that it shouldn't affect Alberta & BC but that's never stopped them before...

I dont moan about fuel prices in Canada....I used to drive 130 miles a day in UK, when I started the job it was £1.14....dropped to £0.99 then sat at £1.24-ish (i think) when I finished prior to leaving UK....very glad not to be facing the £1.44/l based fuel bill
