Find your local Cooperativa, they are the best place to get your gas.

But quite a bit more expensive than the 'local' repsol dealer!

i mean refills, dont think our cooperativa does them, but i will check.
we used to have a repsol storage area outside town, where you could pick up refills, but it closed about 2-3 years ago.
we have one garage locally that is supposed to stock them, but they have one cage with about 50 in it, if you're lucky. in a town on 20,000+ they dont last too long......
been out again this morning, no joy. bugger.

We've got 5 places within 200 meters selling them, if one has run out then we can always get one from another place.. a tale that cost me 90€ for a traffic violation a couple of weeks ago.. but that's another story...
