Don't know who did the actual calculations, but CKNW radio just reported that gas down near Bellis Fair mall in Bellingham, works out to 50 cents a litre Canadian....
We're NOT going down there anytime soon... This post has been edited by Superchecker: Nov 28 2008, 08:17 AM |

bought gas in bellingham yesterday for US$1.85 gallon (at 3.8 litres per gallon = US$0.487 a litre)
exchange rate is 1.248 (according to Vancouver Bullion Currency Exchange) US$0.487 = C$0.608 per litre |

Where I live, it's the cheapest I've seen in over a year - currently 88.9 pence a litre. Glad I don't drive very much.

They ALLWAYS have the price during working hours higher with 7-8c. After 18:00/19:00 then it goes to the lowest price of the day until almost closing time if the station is not 24h. Then goes up again next day. It's because all people are going to work and realise their tank is empty so they have to fill up even if they want or not. |

Yahoo.ca news article this morning pointing out that we in Canada pay like 30% more for gas than they do in the USA, Whatz going on they say.
Isn't that common knowledge? We have always paid more for gasoline than US consumers. |
