Gas Prices Slide

Gas prices finally low enough to "fit" on the Big Boards!

Gas prices continue to slide in Prince George.

They are now below the dollar a litre mark, a place they haven't been since August.

At 99.9 cents a litre in Prince George, the price has slipped three cents a litre in a week, nearly 20 cents a litre since early September.

Still, MJ Ervin and Associates pegged Prince George as number 6 in the country last week for gas prices. Here's how the top six stacked up:

Whitehorse, before tax 90.8 cents per liter     with tax $114.5
Yellowknife   before tax 89.9 cents per liter     with tax $118.3
Timmins        before tax  72.4 cents per litre     with tax $103.9
Kelowna       before tax 71.9 cents per litre    with tax $103.2
Brandon        before tax 71.7 cents per litre    with tax       99.7
Prince George   before tax 70.7 cents per litre with tax $101.9

Last week the national average was (before tax) 60cents per litre, and with tax, 92.8 cents per litre.

My company is not even large, and yet i now have to budget on average $5,700 a month for just fuel.
Its simply crazy....this helps some at least.
