Canmore must really be struggling to get fuel these days. 96.9 in town vs 75.9 in Calgary. Usually the spread is 3-6 cents.

But nobody is lining their pockets, seems legit to me.

I just look at the premium we're paying as saving Alberta jobs.

went past costco yesterday and noticed there were 10+ cars in each line
ok so you save .05 per litre opposed to another station . lets say .08 per litre for sake of argument .

so on a 80 litre tank your saving 6.40 to wait in a line 30-45 min ?
isnt that below minimum wage ?
and thats not account the 3-5 buck of gas you burnt while trying to stay warm while waiting ?

i dont get it , am i mising something ?

Your truck has a 40 liter tank?

And I hope oil does not stay low like this for a while.
