Just found out an old school freind works for a gas company. (Duy uses this gas religiously).


Guess what he told me?


UNOFFICIALY........
And they say they don't fix the prices.


It was at **.9 near the airport........watch.......after work tomorrow, it will be around 76 - 77 cents.......just you watch.

I'm filling up tomorrow morning.

 

So mondays and thrusdays all gas stations (in the morning) have no fixed prices? can uexplain a bit more

 

LMAO!! GOOD ONE!

 

I used to work at a gas station, and we'd just get an automated call and an auth #, so I'd print it up and punch it in the computer and all the prices changed automatically....the call was automated at head office I guess. I've seen the manager call into head office, and change the price (lower) to match other gas stations.

 

what part didn't you understand?

That's what he told me...........I started to notice this recently too.

I always said to myself......"I'll fill up after work." and when I did wait until after work......BAM!

(I get paid every Thursday.....that's why I noticed it.)


The prices keep droping during to rest of the days.....but when Mondays and Thursday roll around........


Is that clear enough?

 

don't know if any of u know about this site
but it's useful sometimes

http://www.togasprices.com

 

Thanks for fixing the link ROY.

 

yeah,
i had a friend who worked at a gas station too and he noticed the same thing, and sometimes there would be odd times when it gets cheaper by fluke and then he'd call me and i'd go in and gas up! it proved very useful, but thankfully i'm not driving for another 3 months so i don't have to worry about the potential of 80 cents/L .... not until the summer anyways

 

Just put in $12 @ **. something a litre. Gave me about a half tank. My car gets such shitty mileage, about 300k to a tank. It's a 2.8 v6.

 

I saw low 70s around on saturday, paid 80.9 for premium at shell, pretty cheap

 

See.....I told you.

Like clock work.

Puplic----> <------Gas companies

 

damn it, i have no gas and i wont make it until tomorrow unless i try pushing every drop i have like in that episode in seinfeld

 

They showed the gas changing on the news.....same point its a fix when it goes down only to bounce by 7 cents in the afternoon
to the gas companies

WHere the hell is the alternative fuel technology?

 

i filled up yesterday morning b-4 going to work and it was at **.90, last night it went down to 68.90 and the line up was huge. this morning it went up to 76.90...thank god i filled up last night.

 

I've known this for 2 years. All you have to do is watch the gas station. I always fill up on monday morning. some stations (in my area) keep low until monday evening.

 

I filled up for 64.5 in St. Catherines on a Tuesday night before xmas. I notice the gas down there is always relatively cheaper.

 

Filled up again yesterday at sunoco **.5, supposedly now its somewhere around 77, luckily I'm completely full. BTW whats the fuel capacity of a 5th gen coupe? 40L?

 

40 L is about typical for all Civics and most econo-imports for that matter.

 

i filled up this morning using esso plus, $32 :fustrated
I have never hit the $30 limit since i bought this car until today
Thank God i don't drive a V8

 

I've been able to stuff 48 L once.......I will never let it get that low again.
