Man over the summer you guys weren't even paying high prices for a while in the summer was $1.58/ liter which works out approx. $6.32/gal so you guys got nothing to complain about. I was just down in the US and gas is crazy cheap there, not to mention the mark up on premium compared to regular is very small compared to our markup, we pay about $0.45/gal more for premium up here. it cost me a little over $100 to fill my car up from empty this summer when the gas price was at its peak. that being said i just filled my car the other day for $60 which is a lot nicer then $100.

Well if u drive real careful then you might get two weeks out of a tank.
It's €1 a litre now (=€3.78 per US gallon/€4.56 per imperial gallon) and it was €1.46/litre during the summer.

$1.85 ($1.84999999) for BP Ultimate last Saturday at Manassas, VA.... 
I haven't filled anything other than Shell V-Power on this car but the BP offer was too tempting to pass by

I suggest using Shell CitiCard if you're in US. If you use the card to buy Shell gas, you'll get 5% credit for next statement. For other spending, it's 1%.
It's not that bad.

Downside of these low prices? 5% is not what it used to be
