camillj Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Just spent the better part of my last 1/8th of a tank driving around Etobicoke looking for gas ... and while the prices are better than I can remember .. there is none to be found .... if anyone has the inside scoop (or knows what the deal is) please let me know Thanks and Merry Christmas to all !
Bigfisherman Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 My Bad, at these prices I bought all of it for next year's soft water fishing season:)
Fang Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Just got back in from CTC Gas Bar in Oakville. They ran out of regular and are giving Premium now at the same price. 68.9 for premium. I can't remember ever paying that
motv8tr Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Lots up here it seems....but the news did say places were running out due to the trucks having a hard time getting around as a result of the weather...also lots of people are filling up getting ready to travel... Maureen
Terry Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 a mechanical failure at the gas distribution depot near Keele St. and Finch Ave. W., snarled delivery efforts throughout much of the city
ccmtcanada Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Yep...a few Esso stations in the Whitby/Oshawa area are closed down...no gas either!
camillj Posted December 24, 2008 Author Report Posted December 24, 2008 Thanks folks .. CT at Dundas east of 427 has gas ... and now ... it also has my wifes car ... I went back to get hers filed up too (figured I would be better safe than sorry ) ... and remembered why it is that guys always get the job of maintenance on the Mrs vehicles .... nasty grinding sound ( me thinks shot bearings) .... anyhow I felt like a part of a B grade movie ... sitting around in the Service centre .. all the mechanics gone home to their families for Christmas eve .. and me ... alone in the lobby waiting to be rescued ... and more importantnly hoping to get back home in time for the festivities ... Anyhow all is now good .. many kind folks offered me a ride home ... Canadian Tire has good karma in my books ... gas AND kind service late on Christmas eve !
fishindevil Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Its sure great to see,in Oshawa gas is now 66.9 cents per litre !!!! its been a long time since its been that cheap,lets hope it stays that way as the price of oil continues to fall !!!!! cheers
ccmtcanada Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Most stations in the Whitby area now are out of reg and mid grade...selling premium at 68 cents. Lots are closed right down...especially Esso.
tapout Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 (edited) I noticed a single shell station here in Brampton by the Peel Police Headquaters had the triple 0's displayed. Never thought much of it. The Sunoco at Steeles and Hwy 10 when I stopped there about 2ish was displaying all grades at the usual price differences. Glad I filled up now after seeing this post. First time in years I paid 50 bucks to fill up. Edited December 24, 2008 by tapout
Billy Bob Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Lots of gas here at $1.81 per US gallon
danbouck Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 When I filled up the suburban a few hours ago they were out of premium and getting low on regular.
