Paid for my $2+ per L gas for the first time ever last night @ $2.019/L. It's funny how this old familiar feeling came back when I paid for $1+ per L gas some 9 - 10 years ago.

Ugh... I really need to get into the EV game...

Yeah I went a few weeks back, $1 USD a litre. But I was driving ev that day and didn't have my Jerry cans with me. You're good as long as you have your arrive can filled out. Make sure you get to the qr code page. Cus someone else had issues with the arrive can and it kept looping back to earlier pages and the code never generated, then they got pulled in. Cuz they can see at the booth if you have it done.

This thread started almost 4 years ago. 4 years later, $0.46c more expensive. ~ 12cents/L YOY increase.

idk why i keep calling it plat when its just a simplycash preferred. Too many words to remember.

what app people using to track US gas prices ?

borderbuddy seems dead.
gasbuddy doesn't report down there.

new .11$ tax going to kick in soon, april 1st

Gasbuddy works for me. Just test it.

Might be referring to Point Roberts since no one really reports gas prices down there

I guess it’s time to start going to PR and bringing the two jerry cans.

PR is. 24h crossing right? Then I can just go after work (midnight)

How does WA's 92 oct compare to Shell 93?

I audibly gasped at the $180.9/L yesterday when I saw the sign and decided to wait on getting gas. Was pleasantly surprised at the $173.9/L at the same station today and it felt like I found money on the ground. Crazy to see such a big fluctuation within a 24 hour span.

Yep 24h. I think I paid $1.33ish CAD for regular at She down there.

I paid $1.70 ($1.74 if you account for 2.5% FX Fee) CAD for 92 Shell on Jan 30. Not sure if prices have gone up in the last two weeks. I'd recommend signing up for the FuelRewards program. It gives you $0.05 - $0.20/gal off. I used it a bunch pre pandemic as I used to go to Blaine every weekend.

Any issues for anyone going to PR for gas/packages this month?

One of my friends got a call from CRA "Hows your quarantine going?" and had to call in to have them say pls ignore, glitch

Metro Vancouver gas prices could hit $1.54 a litre by the weekend: GasBuddy
 

No issues for both gas or packages at PR. The CRA called for something else and had info that they are supposed to be "under quarantine" and asked how it was going..?





There's a new station down in Point Roberts called Speedway which has an app that shows live gas price of the station. Pricing is pretty much on par with the second tier stations down there so Shell/Chevron will be around +10-12cents.

The app is amazing for users but probably won't see the main players doing it since it doesn't make business sense for people to be closely tracking gas prices on their phones to get it at its cheapest point

Fuck these NDP clowns

$0.11/L wow that's bold :lawl:











:okay:

Say sike. Say sike right now. There’s no way this is real.

Is there a way to see gas prices for point roberts? I look up the gas buddy app and they don’t have much info, especially for premium which my cars need

You should blame Gordo Campbell and the Liberals as they implemented the first carbon tax on gasoline back in 2008.

Not gonna blame the oil companies that just turned record profits?
Also, it’s going up TO 11cents, from 10 cents. Which will be exactly in line with ontarios conservative governments 11 cent carbon tax.

any concerns about stale gas? given how ghost town PR apparently is

Thanks for the clarification, i thought it was an additional 11 cents on top of what was going on :lol

I could be wrong for sure, but that’s what my latest googling says, even from the Canadian taxpayer federation who operates under the mentality that “tAXATIoN iS LiTerallY TheFT”

Won't stop the local mafia from taking advantage and jacking it up 10 cents on their end and point to the new 11c tax and shrug shoulders
