    Never good to spend a dollar to save a dime.

    But at the same time, ya gotta give the lesser priced guy the business just as a thank you! As long as it is all things considered.

    To give you the English equivalent, we pay £1.20 per litre . That works out at roughly £5.40 per gallon or in US $7 per G.

    Not good :picard:

    I needed some "corn free" gas for the snowblower at the cottage. Didn't even look at the price per gallon since regular was 2.80..........but I'm thinking somewhere around 3.25ish?

    Was 270.9 cents Monday and 257.9 yesterday in town. It has been swinging like a towel on the line in a wind storm here.

    We do also use Kroger fuel points getting the points by shopping 4X the points week ends Friday thru Sunday, Buying 2X's the points gift cards to resturants, lowes and Home depot and other places when I know were are going ot need things there or eat out.

    How about 359.9 cents a gallon this morning in Romulus at a BP station Per gas buddy.

    :D Al
