Shell is celebrating 30 year refinery anniversary. I heard on 660 News and confirmed the gas is $0.399/Liter at various locations across Alberta.

so shell is running a promotion for their 35 anniversary and are bringing back gas prices from 1984.

stations will be selling gas for 39.9c/L today so if you see which station is lowered, post it up!

I would save almost $100 filling up my truck!

I remember filling up for $0.63/L in the winter of 2008, shortly after crude hit $30 a barrel. I remember it being 49.9 in the mid 90's in Victoria too.

HAHA I remember those days. I think the least amount of gas I ever put into a car was $1.39 when I was 16. It took me to school and back that day.
Now I bet $5 wouldn't even register in my car :rofl:

Promo is on all grades of gasoline and diesel. 91 is at $0.57/L for gas and $0.499 for vpower diesel. Insane.

Not to mention how much gas you'll burn starting and stopping constantly to creep forward in the lineup

i'm pretty sure the savings would still be fairly significant if you have a large tank.
