Last week I saw the Racetrac tanker truck off loading at the Shell
station. Price at Racetrac, 1/2 mile down the road, was $2.89. Price at
Shell was $3.05 for the same gas.

Remember when Sunoco had the "Custom Blended" pumps with all the dials
whirling around and you made your own gasoline...without having to bother
with a cracking plant?

What a scam that was....(c; Almost as much as Amsoil!

Yeah...but bigger quarts!
Sure do miss that 'Imperial Gallon'....... that was something to
measure by. 1 Imperial gallon = 4.54609 litres
1 puny US gallon = 3.78541 litres

We'll all have litres, soon enough. It makes the dollar numbers on the
sign out front less sticker shock until the smart ones figure out what a
ripoff 99c/litre is.

IF the trend continues, we may see it listed in oz increments....like
platinum.


Gas prices hovered up & down under $1.00 for years. This summer...once
that barrier was breached, all hell broke loose. Regular self-service
now costs $1.119 a liter, but was up to $ 1.499 for one half day.
The stupid gas stations still insist in the .9 cents instead of rounding
it off to the nearest cent. Lot of older pumps had trouble with the
extra number when price went over $ 1.00, but they fixed that soon enough.
