The esso I went to in south calgary yesterday was listed at $1, but the pump was listed as $.97 (95 cents after the esso card) - Took me back to the old days of paying less than a dollar.

A few moons ago when I lived in Medicine Hat (circa 2001-2003), there was a new gas station going in. There was a gas war and gas was $0.19/L. for 1 day. It was the greatest day in the history of days for truck owners.

97 cents a litre in Calgary.

I was pretty happy paying less than a buck a litre for once.
