The 3.5 cents discount was useless.. It is just a placebo effect in our minds.

The oil company's new excuse is that they buy in american dollar, so when their dollar is high and our dollor is low, that makes our gas prices high... ?????

Aren't you guys happy that we're still under a dollar? It was only a few months ago we'd kill for $1.2

I'll be happy when things make some sense. Oil could go down to 5 dollars a barrell and I bet we'd still be paying over 50 cents a liter.

a few months ago most of us still have our jobs & would be glad to pay 1.20

for those who got laid off recently, the gas prices are not so affordable and need to be lowered by half price.

I had to go to Abbotsford to work for 1 day. On my way back, bought a tankful at Huntington for 85cents/liter. As soon as I went back into surrey it turned to 95 centers/liter... sighs

60cents a litre in US = 76cents Canadian. Plus we have more taxes on petro compared to the US. So it's really not that far off...

Last night was funny - 89.9/88.9 in Vancouver around Broadway/Granville, and it was SO busy. People were getting all mad, too.
