i just did a rough conversion and here (UK) it would say $9.28*, so quit your
whinging.
*based on that being a price per gallon, while we pay £1.23 a litre.

j1mg - I just did the calculation too - it works out to US$4.40/US gall. here
in NZ (NZ$1.899/litre) and I thought we had it bad! (I also checked your
calclulations and only got $8.12 - so I don't know what exchange rate you were
using).

$2.99 gal. here in my lil burg today. Anyone with a brain knows we're gettin
reamed pretty good these days by the oil companies. It's a damned shame when
this price actually looks good compared to what we've been payin and this price
is about double what we were payin a lil over a year ago

2.91 here. And i say BOOO HOOO to UK always throwing out that comparison. You
have to import 90% of your gas. We refine our own. It SHOULD be cheaper here.

mint you are a numbnuts retard, again. Ever heard of Norway, the richest
country in the world. rich from one commodity,
oil? Now, name the island
on the other side the North Sea that shares those very same oil reserves at the
bottom of that sea. I bet you can't, can you?

just passed 6 stations on the way home..gas here is now 2.47-2.49 wooo
baby
and zxz555 Although i was jokingly grossly over exaggerating when i said 90%, i
said refined gas not oil. UK has like ~10 oil refiners to the USA's ~150

'berto - in NZ:
Petrol(Gas) = NZ$1.899/litre
Milk = NZ$1.60/litre
Orange Juice = NZ$1.30/litre
Botled Water = NZ$1.10/litre
Red Bull - Don't buy it so don't know the price, but i paid NZ$1.20/litre for
some Pepsi yesterday.
So why should I be grateful my car runs on petrol?

Petrol in OZ is on average $1.55 per litre at this point in time.
That's $5.87 per US Gallon.

Gak, I don't know where on this earth you do your shopping.

Red Bull = $11.43 per litre (based on a pack of 4x250ml cans).
Evian water = $2.71 per litre (based on $4.07 for 1.5 litre bottle).
Milk = $2.50 per litre (based on $4.99 for 2 litre bottle).
Coca Cola = $1.70 per litre (based on $3.42 for 2 litre bottle).
Orange Juice = $3.30 (based on $6.53 per 2 litre bottle).

berto - I shop at a supermarket called Countdown
Your first problem - Evian! Store brand bottled water 5 litre bottle - approx
$6/bottle.
Milk - I was guessing a bit on the milk - from memory is about $4.80 for a 3
litre bottle - may be more than that but not a lot more. Store brand again!
Pepsi - $1.79 for a 1.5 litre bottle - on special, normally $2.09.
Orange Juice - $3.89 for a 3 litre bottle - store brand of course!
As i said in my last post - don't drink Red Bull and don't see it as a staple
requirement like the rest.
Lower your brand expectations, buy in bulk when you can and you too can show the
same indignation I do over fuel prices.
