Sadly, it's no better in the UK. We're paying £1.36 / litre which is about $8.35 per gallon. Gulp. There is talk of drastic increases owing to the current unrest in Libya which could easily put us over the $10.00 mark.

Pricing here (Netherlands) as we speak:

Regular :: Premium
1.691?/l :: 1.759?/l
6.401?/gal:: 6.659?/gal (/ 0.26417 gal.)
8.876$/gal:: 9.234$/gal (* 1.3867 EUR->USD)

(Apologies for plagiarizing your setup, Anzafin...)

Could definately use that sign at the stations here
