I filled up the tank at 98.9 cents a litre today. It's a miracle!

Isn't that still $4.45 a gallon?

At 3.79 liters/US gallon, this is equal to US$3.39/gallon (US).

If they just closed the Queensway every night for a week and worked non-stop on it or something, then it would be done....but no, they drag it out over..what is it now? a year?

yes sir! 97.9 here today! hope fully it will last till tomorrow (pay day) i read in the tronto sun yesterday it was because the gas price "bubble" was forced to bust because of the slow in the econemy....at this rate we should fill up jerry cans!

I know the feeling - for the first time in many months, my usual station is selling gas for $2.99 per gallon!

Mavrik · Post by **Mavrik** » Wed Oct 08, 2008 5:03 am

I was happy to see gas at $4.10 the other day.

nuggyboy · Post by **nuggyboy** » Wed Oct 08, 2008 5:19 am

Local stations here have it for $3.12! Waiting for it to reach the $2 mark again, then hopefully will hit $1 mark again. But that's wishful thinking, i know....

It was as low as 95 on Montreal Road in Ottawa this morning. Mom says its 101.3 in Kingston last she saw. I got some tonight on my way home. First time a fill up has been under $50!

well, let's all just relax and settle down by watching Corner Gas tonight on TV. The best show in North America. That'll give us a good laugh the next time we roll by our favorite gas station! Dog River rules!

I filled up for $3.17 today.

At 3.79 liters/US gallon, this is equal to US$3.39/gallon (US).Sorry, for some reason I was under the impression there were. 4.5 liters to a US gallon. (the reason being I needed some gas when I was up there and I only wanted to put in enough to get back so I asked a local how many liters to a gallon). Also, the exchange rate was $0.92 US to $1 Canadian. That's how I got my number, I guess I was pretty off. I was up there at the end of August, it was $1.35 a liter at the time. If its $0.98 there now you are paying the exact same amount we are down here.

Don't know if it's true, but it seems like it...

Don't know if it's true, but it seems like it...Quite often the cheapest in Canada. Which makes no sense as you've got farther to go to ship it (generally speaking) and higher taxes than other provinces...68.9 / L for bronze here today. Never thought I'd see it below 90 cents again.

Oil went up about $10 a barrel. I'm surprised gas has stayed at the 70 cent mark so long.
