Cheap Gas
Hey dudes.. gas is going down in price.

I topped up today.. 36 liters... @ 65.5.

I find that the CHEAPEST station is @ Wellesley & Parliment downtown close to the Eaton Center. There's an ESSO there @ 66.5 today.
Just up the street.. there's a Petro Canada for those who hate Esso.. @ 64.9.. and they're full service

Where do you guys fill up? I only fill up downtown now since it's so much cheaper. Lineups are a bit longer but the savings are worth it.

Actually.. it's not that bad... the average price of gas TODAY is **.5.

Exactly 1 year ago today.. the same day.. it was an average 67.95. So we're only more expensive by 1.55 cents per liter today! It's sinking.

Sure it does matter about the price. What if you're having problems making ends meet? Saving a dollar here and there helps!

Either you're gasing up with a tank that's like 28 liters large... (leaving 2 liters for the warning light)

Or you're gasing up when your tank is only like 1/3 full...

You can't be bone dry in the gas tank and get $25 to a fill @ 0.97. Unless your tank is 30 liters large at most

I have really bad luck with gas. Whenever I need to pump it's expensive. When I have a full tank it's cheap. It drives me nuts

On the Hamilton cruise that I went on on Saturday.. gasoline there was like 73.9 and that was considered cheap apparently!

In Toronto.. cheap for me is like 65.5! That's cheap. Head down to teh Eaton Center... Around that area.. gas is really cheap.

I've noticed that it's usually the cheapest on Sunday (all day) and Monday's before 1pm (I go out to lunch and it's cheap, come back from lunch and the price jumps up).
