mcman Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I am in north Ireland and we pay a little bit more that the main land UK just a few pence. But it all adds up. So I have started to buy petrol in the republic of Ireland it is working out about 75p a litre, which is better than 95p+. I see petrol going above ?1 a litre very soon, but never come down again.

IrcSystmzz Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Well if ya make minimum wage here in the USA ya sure gas is outrageous , But if your on a high income level its not all that bad :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerHappySam Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Gas at $0.97 a gallon? That was just 15 years ago, I remember bitching about having to pay $1.50 a gallon. Boy what I wouldn't do now just to have $2.00 a gallon. :yes: Gas prices in the USA are absurd to put it mildly. I live in Southwest Missouri, USA and currently the gas prices are bouncing between $2.00 and $2.25 for normal unleaded. I watched a guy spend $60.00 to fill up his Ford pickup - he said has spent nearly $200 in a week just on gas !!!!! I spent $30.00 to fill up my 6 cylinder '96 Mustang - I about blew a gasket :angry: What are the gas prices where you are at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SergeantNoob Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 The cheapest gas station I saw was $2.19 in North Bergen, NJ. It's on US 1-9 if anyone cares. But around where I live, it's about $2.27 - $2.49 The Exxon gas station around my home charges $2.74 for premium gas :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PseudoRandomDragon Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 If you stop spending money on bottled water and drink it from the fountain instead, you neutralize the effect of the higher gas prices without sacrificing the quality of the water you drink.

Axon Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Well, Europe is laughing at us cause they've been paying these prices for quite some time, but the gas prices, at least in Canada, are priced purely to gauge (hurt) the consumer, as Canada produces much of its own oil, as well as being the leading supplier to the States. Ft. McMurry AB just recently found yet another massive oil patch. So, in Canada the prices should be much lower, but of course the supplies (Mainly SunCore and SinCrude) match their prices to that of OPEC. I believe the biggest problem right now isn't in oil shortage, but that the refineries can't keep up with the supply load. -Ax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R-Flex Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Here in Vancouver, gas prices are the highest in the country, at $1.08 per litre, although personally I've seen them as high as $1.10. Those two extra cents have everyone bitching. I remember gas was always 60 cents a litre. That seemed to be standard. There once was even a gas war which lowered the average price to between 40 and 50 cents. I remember seeing 29.9 cents at one time. The current rise, at least in Canada, rose from 64 cents average (September 203) to today's $1.00-$1.10 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fahad Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 its about 4 liters to the gallon right? $1.08CAD = .892934USD .892934x4 = $3.57USD per gallon? is that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the fact that it tastes like utter crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
