Gas/Car Mileage - Business Edition

How much does your company pay you for your gas/car mileage if using your own car?


Let me know.


I'd like to know what i'm getting is good or not.

I'd rather get paid by km (I realize its not an option all the time)...I drove to Mississauga the other day, cost me like $20 (maybe) in gas (there and back), they paid me like $60...

Right now I just told I was getting $0.485/km


I'm assuming that is pretty good then?

well to be honest...we got a gas card whenever we did something business oriented...and at the time I drove a cadillac...so regardless of whether it was like 2km or 20km free tank of gas = $70+ and the best was fillin up for the weekend and then again monday morning...for 4 years I never purchased gas with my own money...now come to think of it, thats how I had all my money to party in st catharines hahaha

I technically dont get paid to drive to work.

But....


I work in st. catharines and have been driving around alot lately for business. Yesterday I drove to oakville from st. catharines and then I just went home after instead of going back to work but I still wrote down that I drove the whole shin-dig.

160kms or so.
