Hi cost of living = low cost for fuel !!!

In BC the cost of living is 3 time more expencive with a third less population then QC still the fuel price is 10% cheaper almost the same ± !!!

So in europe cost of living would be realy cheap because the fuel is twices more expencive compare to the States !!!

Makes sense !!


In Canada we're producing more fuel then what we can use
Out west all the surplus goes to the western States

All eastern Canada get there fuel from venezuela !!!

In europe 100% governement taxe is aded to each liter of fuel !!!

Here the fuel has only gone up 300%
there only 200% over the last 8 years .........WHY ???

Answer US dollar !!

Just thought I would say...Our little town is settling down now. All stores have regular gas now. I'm seeing gas prices at $3.95 now. Of course, I bet its only here for about a week. It's fall and gas always jumps when the leaf watchers and tourists come around.

I read that a gas station in Cobb County is being investigated for selling gas for over $8.00. Supposedly, there is an actual store receipt proving this. I haven't heard anymore about it since first reading it a few days ago though.





I saw cheap grade in Braman OK last week for $2.95. I'll see later today what it is this week.

Only one station here had gas this weekend, they had regular only, $3.899.

Supplies are still really tight in this area.

It's gonna be lower than that now. It was about that price in Iowa a couple days ago, and I know OK is cheaper than IA typically.
