Cambridge = $1.30
London = $1.30

London Costco = $1.23

Bonus is Costco only up charges 12 cents for premium vs the 20 cents that Shell does.

1,20$ for E10 Superplus
0,87$ for diesel

Luckily, the state of NC has anti-gouging laws during fuel crises. When I went to the track in VA, the stations there were charging 1,30$ for E10 and VA has a fuel tax that's nearly half of NC. It was cheaper to buy non-race fuel at the track than on the main road.

I always used to buy, diesel usually, at the Carrefour or the Geant Casino in the Centre Commercial BAB2 between Biarritz and Bayonne. Cheapest gas for miles around in that area... although always expensive compared to Canada at the time ( mid '80s to early '00s)

(I forget which hypermarket had the gas bar but IIRC it was only one of them)

Yeah, Carrefour is the chain that has petrol stations. However as I was coming in from San-Sébastian to return the rental and catch the flight, I wasn't inclined to drive around too much for petrol. The D810 (Ave. Maréchal-Soult) was a traffic and roadwork nightmare whenever I drove it. I got a petrol/essence this time, which was fine because I've driven the DS3 diesel and wanted to try the petrol even if petrol costs about 8-10 cents more a litre at the pumps. The inline-triple was excellent.

If you were leaving from Biarritz airport the Carrefour is only about 3 km but if the D810 was bad... can't do anything about that!

$1.029 locally with 4 cents off for cash at the DOMO.
$2.449 US per gallon across the line (87 octane), or around .83/l after exchange. Saved almost $20 filling the truck yesterday. I like saving.

Hello, I just moved to California from India and planning to buy a car.
I was told that we need to be careful when choosing an insurance. Can someone tell me what kind of car insurance I should buy?

Seriously, why would you think posting this in the Gas Price Update was the correct place for this question?

This is mainly a Canadian forum and choosing an insurance depends on the vehicle, the type of driving, location, and what's required as per your lease/loan agreement. Saying that one type of coverage is best for your situation is not possible without all this info.

BWII · « **Reply #4512 on:** October 27, 2017, 02:11:09 pm »

$1.069/l here, still $2.449/US gallon there.

Gas jumped to $1.16 here but Costco only went to 96.9, so now the main stations have had to quickly retreat to 99.9.

mlin32 · « **Reply #4516 on:** October 29, 2017, 10:57:21 pm »

So it seems like the stations where I live have caught onto the growing trend of charging a LOT more for Superplus versus other grades.

Diesel: 0,83
E10: 0,91
Superplus (93 AKI/98 RON): 0,99

Oh I wish I had a diesel.......

BC cut income taxes like crazy, and seems to be trying to make it all up with gasoline taxes.

One of the few reasons I couldn't afford to drive to work in Vancouver. It was either transit or scooter, later on motorcycle.

Kelowna remains steady at 119.9, Kamloops also remains steady at 114.9 except for Costco which is at 112.9.
