the_rev Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 2.98 here NOW! There is one gas station at 2.69 and they have a line one mile long. Your brother in Christ, Eddie Lee
FlyLikeABird Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 gas prices are just too high I'm glad I take buses

prose Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 [quote]Syphoning gas by sucking it up is dangerous and illegal.[/quote] I think it is so funny. It looks like us Canucks pay less... And then you convert it. I don't understand... My province PRODUCES oil. That is our backbone. how can it be so expensive???

Thus, if Canada exported x barrels of oil for 20 years to the US, they must continue to do so. failure to do so when they are able to do so can be construed as an act of war. Thus, even though Canada produces and exports oil, it remains expensive due to the fact that much of the oil produced must be exported and cannot be kept inside the nation.
toledo_jesus Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 ranges from $2.48 and 9/10/gallon to 2.69 9/10/gallon.

I didn't know that. Can you imagine, Canada picking a WAR?? Holy cow that would be funny.
Proud2BCatholic139 Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 Here in Minnesota, different gas stations are trying to compete. The gas station near my house is now 2.79. In other areas, 2.69 or ONE kind of close to me was 3.69!!! I nearly fainted. However, my brother works at a gas station so I get a discount on gas. Yippy! :
franciscanheart Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 tom thumb shoppers get discount gas but the stations are always full so its almost not worth it!
