Default It's getting nice and cheap to fill the A8 again in the USA

I guess a side benefit of a sliding economy - oil prices are way down. Gas futures are at around $1.50/gallon (about $0.40/liter) and retailers are approaching the $2.00/gal mark in central states..

What are people in other countries paying?<ul><li><a href="http://www.gasbuddy.com/gb_gastemperaturemap.aspx">http://www.gasbuddy.com/gb_gastemperaturemap.aspx</a</li></ul>

Default Timmins, ON? Yeah, the Canadian oil cos play some funny games w/pricing.

I have a place in the GTA too. Here in Central NY it's as low as 2.70 at the warehouse clubs, but that's still high compared to other states.

Default No, Calgary. I would imagine the GTA would be +$ than us. It sucks to pay more when your province...

is producing so much oil. I wish there was a local market discount .

Edit:

Pay more relative to the US, that is

Default ? I meant we would be paying $3.79 CAD per US Gal.

Or, $0.80/Litre or $3.02/US Gal in USD

Try here in UK. Just dipped back under £1 per litre (has been up to £1.23), so that's around £4.50 UK gallon, or around £4 US gallon, or US$6.5 US gallon !!!!
