Things that don't fit anywhere else...

couple of months ago, 4.25... now can find 3.25... this week has been largest drop.

Now that prices are lower, expect demand to increase and prices to rise... except for those invested in the stock market.

I paid $3.05 in No. Minnesota and thought I was getting good deal. Funny how perception changes.

Yup! Just two years ago, we were groaning about $2.65 -- now we celebrate it -- if we can find it. :lol:

BEAT YOU..!!
Hometown in Norway is 1.62 EUR at moment, but did pass nearly 1.4 EUR 2moth ago. BUT, this record is nothing to be proud off!!!!
We´re making own oil, but sells this cheaper to other countrys, and the government clap their hands and collect even more taxes for the "envirement" they say, but mostly its used for own good by the "tops".

I have heard that some folks in Norway come to the Swedish or Finnish side especially way North to purchase gas or consumable goods. Due to the high prices in Norway.

Let me know what you need when we come over :lol: :lol: :lol: I better make sure our gas tank is full before crossing the borders. :lol: That goes for beer and party soda too. :D :D

Yup, 1/2 litre beer on pubs cost about 7- 7.5 Euro, so keep your own in the cooler....when passing! :cry:
For shure, when crossing borders for trips to North, i always fill up the allowed, both gas and other stuff! (works as a trucker..)
