Couple days ago it was a buck oh one on the way out of Calgary...it was nice to fill up my gas guzzling Durango (parents old vehicle okay! Cut me some slack) for under a hundred bones. I feel bad for people who're driving diesel's right now. Price was a buck thirty.

Can we still blame the NEP? 
There is a station in Sundance selling at 96.9. The rest I saw coming up MacLeod were all at 100.9 (less the standard 3.5 cents per litre)

I paid 2.65 a gallon the other day. I go through about three tanks of gas a month, because I'm an idiot and rented an apartment on the opposite side of Boston from where I work. So it was nice to fill my car up for 31$ last week.

For some reason Oklahoma is the lowest in the country; is that where the refineries are located?

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

Me too, I was so amazed that it was less than a buck that I thought I'd had a few too many beers before driving to the gas station and I might have been delirious....

$1.09 for Shell V-Power 91 octane. Beats paying $1.50, but you know next summer it will be $1.75.
It was only a year or two ago we were all shocked at $1 gas. Now all we do is pray that is gets that low again.

$3.50/gallon at the Chevron but $2.70/gallon at Costco. However, my husband wont let me use Costco gas cuz he says its crappy quality. Does it really make a difference.
I have no idea what the above prices are in Litres either..

Gee OB- after we gave you all the math.... 
I would likely agree with your hubby- there are places here that always have cheap gas, and I wouldn't use it.
I still remember once my car had run out of gas at 4:00am, and we pushed the car past a Domo to hit a Texaco station. Domo attendant even asked us what was wrong, and was surprised that we wanted to push the car a few more blocks.

im thinking that California has the most expensive gas in the whole US....sometimes I wish I lived in Oklahoma! It's not even that much more than you Canadians have to pay right now!
Luckily my MINI is a fuel efficient car  and Im not driving around a big SUV..

$2.09 per gallon today in Wichita.
The news guys here are constantly telling us that we have the cheapest gas in the nation. I guess they are wrong.
The highest it ever got here was $3.79 I believe, but it was $2.99 only about 3 weeks ago.

Hate to burst your bubble, but the gas you buy at Shell could be from any number of refiners.
Oil companies don't market only their own gas.

I would like to say you suck big time. Thats what I pay to fill up my tiny Nissan Versa and that is when gas prices are reasonable (relative to recent numbers)
Theres a gas station near SAIT called Centex that always seems about 4-5 cents lower. I filled up there a couple days ago at 94 when everywhere else around it was 100
