I think you meant $0.919/L because at $91.9/L, my car with a 60L tank would cost $5514..

you don't burn too much b/c it is highway driving. I save around $15 per tank.

no, $2.00 off 25 liters.

Steal directly from redflagdeal (hungryboi), used it more than 3 times without any problem. fill exactly at 25L, no master card needed.

Fundamental does not suggest we gonna hit anywhere near $1.40/L. Gasoline price should be below $1/L right now but greedy bastards are artificially keeping the price up

agree. with all the record high revenue posted every quarter, we can see where all the money goes.

^ Because everyone thinks gas price is commodity price. ppl often say there's no way to fight it anyway and let it go.

^People have fought it and the conclusion is that there is no collusion, at least not any sort of collusion that has substantial evidence to win in court. Basically, we're SOL unless someone can find good evidence.

not at all... its whatever the market will take...

If people stopped buying gas the price would go down...

Why don't we talk about all the increased revenue the government gets from these increased prices? We all blame the oil companies... but the government is partly at fault here...

People don't complain about the overinflated prices of luxury goods which have huge margins... its whatever the market can hold and is willing to pay...

luxury goods are not commodity item. but you are right, government is partially responsible for this as well.

But it's too difficult to have many ppl stood up at the same time and complain. We can only watch it soar however they like for now.
