We are still getting ripped off.
Why people buy gas from service stations that don�t offer anything in return is beyond me.
At least with Canadian tire and Super store and save on gas bar offers something back.
Please start using these stations and the others will have to lower their price in a hurry.

it's still under a buck in certain places in Ontario. Get back to me when we aren't getting screwed over.

The price of crude today was for Nov. delivery to the refinery not the pump after processing. There is a 1-2 month disconntect between the 2. Plus the Canadian dollar is in the toliet so prices should be going back up again.

SZD there might be that delay, but there is sure no delay on the price increases. That is just a convenient way of the oil companies explaining why the price is higher as they rip us off for an additional two months.

It's 95 cents in Calagary so we are still being ripped off for about 18 cents p/l

Some joker on CNN told Loo Dobbs that gas was cheaper the closer you were to a refinery. Only in America. Gosh!

Monday gas east of Edmonton was 101.9 and diesel was 129.9 if you could find it. Some stations were out, not enough being produced they said.

For a few shekels of gold ya might find gasoline in McBride. Pickup truck full of Jerry cans of petrol parked in McBride with a 100% mark up and a captive market might make ya a few extra bucks for the upcoming Xmas shopping. Plus you are providing a service! For a fee.
