Gas prices

[Nuke]

errr scratch that heres a posting on my local news DAYTON, Ohio -- Miami Valley residents were happy to see lower gas prices this weekend.

Motorists found regular gasoline selling for under $1.40 a gallon in Huber Heights Saturday afternoon.

One station has gas for $1.38 a gallon and people were lined up to fill up their vehicles.

One motorist said she filled her tank for under $25 and that was a nice change.

lol it's 75 cents here in Canada

1 litre = 3.78 gallons.

Which means if your gas is $1.00/litre, that converts directly to $3.78/gallon.

Get out your calculators.

(.75 $/L) * (3.78 L/gal) = 2.84 $/gal

That figure is in Canadian dollars. The conversion rate is 0.78548 USD/CD.

(2.84 CD/gal) * (0.78548 USD/CD) = 2.23 USD/gal

I was in Birmingham, England earlier this week and it was hovering at a little less than a pound per litre. Let's have fun with conversions!

(.97 ?/L) * (3.78 L/gal) = 3.67 ?/gal

Money.MSN.com says the current conversion rate is a scant 1.48854 $/? (ouch)

(3.67 ?/gal) * (1.48854 $/?) = 5.46 $/gal




And to actually contribute to the thread, I just filled up my guzzler 1966 chevy impala at $1.56/gal.

I'm saving about $12 per fill-up since the prices have gone down.

My neighbor drives a Ford F-250 and commutes to work - he's saving about $100 a week on gas

 

[Confusing]

Gas here where I live, cheapest I have seen is about $1.60.
Not too bad, definitely better than that $3.90 gas a few months ago.

Sure is nice to fill up my F150 without having to promise my kids first 10 years of earnings.

Another drop. 1.51 here in Springfield Missouri. Think we're lucky? We're not. It's so low because this place is just a CESSPOOL of neo-conservative right-wingers, meaning there's like 0 taxes on the gas. In exchange, we've got crappy roads, crappy schools, and crappy o=public buildings. Guess there's a price for everything, though =D

Here in england its around 95 pence a litre which makes out as $1.40 per litre.

Which makes out $5.29 per gallon.

don't get to happy, when there is a glut (surpluss) of oil it can be as bad as when there is a shortage.

but we aren't near that point yett

The stupidity of our English fuel prices is none other than... TAX! Not harder to get or more expensive to buy, they just tax us to kingdom come.

$1.64 here in North Dakota.

Lol, currently we dont have a surplus, its the economy that is causing our gas prices to drop. Once economy is fixed, the gas prices will go back up

well thats not 100% true. The cost of a barrel has fluctuated, but most of that has to do with Futures Trading. And then because of tax.

i saw $1.57/gallon yesterday

Way to poop in our Cheerios.

Its like 1.99 here. I love it. If i stayed between 1.50 abd 230 per gallon i would be content. It could stay lower and id be even happier. This has cut my cost to drive home from school on weekends by about $30-$40.
