Why the DipFuck (Farkel got away with it, so why not me?) do we pay so much for petrol in the UK? Forget the taxes excuse; all
the other countries could bleat the same thing too!

I just filled up with gas this morning, on my way to work. It's cost was only $1.25 per gallon.
It's aluminum wheels that I have a problem with. After I got the gas, I went on my way to my first house and hit a pot hole. It bent the crap out of the wheel.(second time it's happened) The first time it happened I paid $175 for the wheel with a trade in of the ruined one. When it happened again this morning. I took my house payment and bought four steel wheels and new tires because I needed two more new ones anyway but when I broke the wheel it also split one of the new tires I had on the front. Why in hell they make aluminum wheels in the first place is beyond me. They may look nice but they aren't worth the money you pay for them. Shari |
Yep, I know I am addicted now. I spelled four as forum.

I filled up here in montana this morning @ $1.47 for the lowest grade
Lets do like in China, and take our bikes instead. Only problem is that it's -15C today, and that's too cold for me on bike. While I see the paper boy deliver his papers every morning on bike even in deep snow and even when the temperature goes down to -20C.
Been varing from $1.45 - $1.65 for high test (93 octane), American, in the Cleveland area. Seen regular in the teens in some places. Venezuela strike's gona mess stuff up though.

Here in South Texas it is $1.18 a gallon.
Here in Missouri...it's $1.28...yesterday....of course they had the ladder up to the price sign!...
Sure wish we had free medical here! We are paying $550. (For both of us)a month for cobra insurance since hubby retired. That's dental also.. And prescription coverage and hospital.
Snoozy...
Costco, doesn't really save you that much on gas, costco with gas is north of Seattle, and I live in Seattle proper, the local AM/PM is usually the same, if not beating Costco's price.
