It was all the rage, so to speak, to b*tch about gas prices when they were on the way up, but now that they're on the way down...nuthin'. So just to be contrary, here goes. It hasn't been this low for a while; it was 74.4 for regular today, 82.4 for premium for the GTI.

Yep, DSW, no one wants to talk about it now that it has come down and is reasonable (ie. boring) again. I hope ppl realize the lower prices will not last indefinitely.

Regular is 95.9 here but we are always higher than many other places in the country, partly due to tax.

Same, 94.5 here for reg. I guess that's the price we pay for living in the best place on Earth.

Still sitting at 98.9 for regular. Some things never change it seems.

If there is is a federal election in January (and all indications are it's coming) watch for energy prices to keep falling. Energy companies wouldn't want to raise them for fear of it becoming an election issue. The last time we had high energy prices during an election, all the parties where talking about "energy programs".

I know BC is the best place on Earth, the Liberal TV ads told me so.

Then don't be foolish and start watching the Conservative ads....they mayl start filling your head with far fetched ideas like Stephen Harper is a robot.

Filled up my new winter beast with premium for 84.9 yesterday. Half a tank only cost $12.75 with this small car and tank.

bmorton · « **Reply #16 on:** November 28, 2005, 09:26:12 pm »

79.2 here in London this afternoon. Lowest I've filled up at since the middle of February.

random006 · « **Reply #17 on:** November 28, 2005, 09:48:50 pm »

88.4 to 92.9 depending on district. Niiiiice, very niiiiice.

I know it won't last, might not even last through the summer and the start of the next hurricane season. I will take what I can get, though.
