Here in Saskatchewan, Canada we are paying 67.9 per litre. this translates to about $3.08 per Imperial gallon. Ouch!!! It hurts when the boat and the Sub are empty!!!

Took a jump last week. Was paying as low as $1.19 in Mason City Iowa, now most of the area stations in these small Iowa towns are running $1.38-$1.47. It sucks. I think Mason City is up to $1.29. I'll be filling both tanks when I go there on Weds.

LAST EDITED ON May-15-00 AT 04:06PM (CST)[p]Having just returned from West Central, MN, I saw a range in price for regular unleaded that ran from $1.46 in Mpls, $1.36 in Little Falls, $1.49 in Wadena and $1.45 in Ottertail/Perham. The average in all the other towns up Hwy 10 seemed to be the $1.46.
$58.90 to fill the Burb...OUCH!

LAST EDITED ON May-15-00 AT 05:05PM (CST)[p]The above posters are all "lucky ducks." Here in California it's $1.79 - $1.89 - $1.99 depending on
the grade. Plus the local yocals have cut back on "the pollutants" so I now get 225 miles per tank instead of the 300 I used to get. They said the new "clean" gas reduced emmissions 25%. Let's see, I now get 25% fewer mpg. DUH!!! Only 13263 days to government pension - ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!

Here in Omaha it's $1.46 but like everyone else it seems to have gone up $.10 since last week. Maybe the gas companies are testing the waters for their annual "vacation time price increases".
Going up to Leech on the 22nd of this month and bet it will be close to $2.00, for 92 octane, at the resort.
There is 3.7853 liters in a US gallon. This would convert to $2.57 Canadian funds for a US Gallon. The exchange rate is currently .67259 (I just got that off the Yahoo site) That would convert to $1.72. I would assume that is for 87 octane not the 85.5 we get in the US.

1.58 in the suburbs here in Southeastern Wisconsin and 1.69 along any major road or hwy.
Expect to see it hit 2.00 before it starts to level off...
It's going to be an expensive summer..:-(
Let's see...how many lures could I have bought if the prices had stayed as low as last year?? Ouch! That hurts!

You guy's should try trying to live over here in scotland uk we pay $5.00 for a us gallon and tat is the same for diesel, and we also have to pay £12.00 for a shallow shad rap so we are getting screwed big time over here!!! I was lucky to have a holiday in the us last year and you have it made ,cheap gas, good fishing, cheap tackle and some fantastic boats, I could go on for ever!!
and also all the people i met when i was over were so helpful and friendly.
ps. you also have the burger joint "HOOTERS". a great place for lunch.

OK, I'll chill. I just think that we could have done without the topic focusing remark. We are not kids that need to be remined by you that this is a walleye site. As for your personal remarks about my aspirations, well, me thinks you know less now then before. :-)
You have a great day as well.

You're right!!!
Sometimes we need a kick in the pants to realize the things and opportunities we take for granted. All you have to do is watch the news and see what's happening around the world. Sometimes we have to be thankful for what we do have and stop and smell the roses along the road of life once in awhile. Even though there's nothing wrong with wishing things were a little better........... Wow....I'm startin to sound like a politician or something......eeeegads.
Good Fish'n

Here in Omaha 1.49 to 1.57 but in Council Bluffs 1.37 I think I will cross the river to fill up both tanks in the F-150
I am in the Air Force and have just returned from one of my many trips to Saudi Arabia. The gas there is about 45 to 65 cents per gallon after you do the money and liters to gallons conversion.
But there are very few lakes, No Walleyes, and Hooters would be illegal.
