Shouldn't fill up at the airport. That would save you a few cents.

I'm not sure how that would make any difference?

Gas prices in Vancouver have been stuck at 99.9 the last few days :thumbsdow

Screw that, price of gas isn't going to stop me from getting MORE displacement. To me gas is something you need anyways. so it doesn't really bother me TOO much, Benyl, I filled up at 99.9 a couple weeks ago in my Zed... yeah, it sucks, but worth it too me.

Prices of gas are always more expensive at the Vancouver Airport.

Acutally, yesterday it wasn't. In some places around vancouver, it was over a buck for regular.

Come to think of it, a lot of gas stations are going to have to get new signs to display prices... either that, or they have to get rid of displaying the 10ths unit after the decimal.

I dunno, 94 right now is like 1.13. In the summer they said reg's gonna go up to 1.40 so we're talking premium around 1.50. Life's a bitch.
