In the search for gas around my neighbourhood, one station was 99.2!!! I found another 91.5 so I filled up

Later on some POS ricer (not sure what it was). Was revving his engine beside me, so I let him get a car length and then I took off (by the time I got to 65km/h or so in 2nd I was wayyyyyyyyy past him...), I left him in the dust.. LOL

Anyway, instead of driving the .5km's to the gas station I ended up going on the highway etc.. and going 10km's. What a rush!



EDIT: Forgot to add, I hadn't driven my car in a few weeks!

Is that Octane or price per liter? :scratch:

Regina Cabs an Cab Co. selling Gas to public

That really burns me. I went home to visit my parents this last weekend, 400km north of here. Their Coop station gets their fuel from the Regina refinery. 97.9. How the heck can they sell for 8 cents cheaper, even factoring in the transportation costs. Something smells fishy to me.

I actually found a petro canada on south albert that stayed at 99.9 for about a day longer than everyone else, so I filled up both my cars, and my even my gas can for my lawnmower on friday before I left for the weekend.

Heard early this spring that gas would hit a dollar a liter by Christmas (already there) and 2 dollars per liter by next summer ....man I really hope that doesn't happen.
