Fuel prices are dropping
 

We drove back from Tampa today and saw several gas stations at $3.85,
down from 4+ last week. Later I did some price shopping for diesel on
the telephone since we are getting ready to head north for the summer
on the trawler. After the first couple of calls I was expecting
something close to $4 but literally struck oil on the fourth call.
We've got a truck arriving at the house tomorrow morning for
$3.69/gal, all taxes included.

Thats funny, the price of gas up here is set to go UP 6.4 cents per
litre overnight. This, blamed on the RISE in the price of a barrel of
oil.

That's off-road diesel with fewer taxes. It was $3.90 at the marina two
weeks ago when it was $4.29 on the road.

The news says the average is down a penny but the stations near me are
still the same from what I can tell. I would like to see it dip, even
if only for a few days because I am down to my last couple cans of gas
for the boat.

$4.09 for 89octane 10% ethanol blend here.

Last time I bought boat gas I got 50 gallons for $3.57 or so. It
lasted me almost 2 months but we were busy and did not boat as much as
usual. If I don't see a big drop soon I may just buy a few cans and
watch the price.

I would buy right now. Unions in Yemen have just caused some shutdowns.
Libya taps are off, a Canadian pipeline also went down for major
unplanned maintenance and news is a shortage is coming from Saudi.

By August you might very well see north of $5 at the pumps because add
in currency devaluation (inflation).

I expect it to be even higher here. While US Fed is ponzi fraud
printing money and is far worse than is Canada, Ottawa is also doing the
same thing. BoC buys Canadian debt just like the US Fed buys T-Bills
that don't sell on the open market. Iceland, Ireland, Greece, Spain,
Portugal and others don't operate fraud banks like we do. So the
outcome will be different.

I can't remember the last time a Canadian government bond issue filled
with general public market support. Early 2008? Or later 2007? In any
case, a currncy value crash is inevitable for USD and CAD, China will in
time lose patience with US fraud and just write the US debt off, when
that happens the USD will rapidly loose value big time.

It is what is driving the commodity prices of gold for example. Real
money that survives failing governments and their fraud money policies.

The truck showed up this morning and actually sold me the diesel for 3
cents less than yesterday's quote, 750 gallons at $3.66. That's 30
cents cheaper than the quote I got from Ballards Oil at the Ft Myers
Beach shrimp dock. They said that today's price was up 12 cents
however for delivery tomorrow. That's a lot of price volatility.

So you just spend $2700 on fuel for your boat.. you must be

All the guys I know who claim to be middle class spend $2700 to fill up
their boat's fuel tanks.

:)

Anchor Bay East Marina, in Dundalk, in the Bal'mer Harbor area, has
pretty good prices for diesel. I paid a bit more than you did around the
first of the month.

But I sure didn't buy 750 gallons...that's three tankfuls for me. I'm
just a middle class kind of guy.

The nice thing about big tanks is that you can pick and choose where
you fill up - very thrifty and middle class. The truly wealthy, which
I am not, don't really care all that much what they pay for fuel.

It's going up another 1.41 cents per litre. New price = $1.41.6 per
litre.

Whats a litre?

About a US quart. Everyone else in the world uses metric, not imperial
or US measurement. US is a holdout in some businesses. Medicine,
science and much international trade is now in metric.

Take the UK, even they now do litres having abandoned the Imperial
measure some time ago.

Litre is the common spelling, however for US, liter is the official
spelling.

So for a rough estimate, 4 litres is a US gallon. But to be entirely
accurate, 3.7854118 litres in a US gallon.

1 Liter is 1.05668821 US quarts.

Clear as mud?

The easy way to remember is written on the side of a half liter water

A liter is an oz bigger than a quart and 4 liters is 4 oz more than a

They do use the metric system to scam booze buyers. A "fifth" of
whisky is now 750ml and a "gallon" jug of wine is 3 liters.
That really seems to be the only major industry here that has gone
metric.


A "gallon" jug of wine? Good stuff, eh? :)

Some of the best wines in the world come in the metric equivalent of a
gallon, dip****.

They do use the metric system to scam booze buyers. A "fifth" of
whisky is now 750ml and a "gallon" jug of wine is 3 liters.
That really seems to be the only major industry here that has gone
metric.

**************

We got screwed when we converted to metric.
With our old Imperial system... a quart was larger than a liter.. but the
price stayed the same..to offset conversion they claimed.

You like getting screwed, at least you do if it's Harry doing the
screwing.

It's going up another 1.41 cents per litre. New price = $1.41.6 per
litre.

Whats a litre?

About a US quart. Everyone else in the world uses metric, not imperial
or US measurement. US is a holdout in some businesses. Medicine,
science and much international trade is now in metric.

Take the UK, even they now do litres having abandoned the Imperial
measure some time ago.

Litre is the common spelling, however for US, liter is the official
spelling.

So for a rough estimate, 4 litres is a US gallon. But to be entirely
accurate, 3.7854118 litres in a US gallon.

1 Liter is 1.05668821 US quarts.

Clear as mud?


The easy way to remember is written on the side of a half liter water
bottle. 16.5 oz
A liter is an oz bigger than a quart and 4 liters is 4 oz more than a
gallon.

whisky is now 750ml and a "gallon" jug of wine is 3 liters.
