Yup...sigh...$1.09.9 per litre here... I am expecting to see over $2.00, like lastr summer.

Getting ready to choose the shows I will be going to this year. I had hoped to go to two "away" shows, but can't afford to travel that far twice. Actually, I can't really afford it once!

One in Cape Breton, and the other in PEI, both are at least a 7 hour drive one way, with three to four day stays. Most of us can't afford it at these prices, and I imagine that they'll keep going up.

There is just nothing we can do...I hate that! I hate too, that the companies think we are so stupid as to beleive that todays price at the tank, should reflect what happens today, when they buy an un-refined "barrel".

What I don't get is the diesel prices..diesel was always cheaper since it don't take as much refining..BUT now people bought these BIG diesel 4 wheel drives and the trucking companies all run on diesl (well the trucks, not the companies..lol) and all of a sudden its more than gas!

Think maybe there is some price gouging going on? They got us over a barrel. You gotta have fuel.
