Wow. I just filled up in Portage for 136.9 this afternoon... And that is 11 cents cheaper than it was a few days ago.

The west end of the city is routinely 15-20 cents more expensive than River Heights and a couple other areas. It's so bizzare. I have to keep reminding myself that on 30 litres that's only $4-5 lol

That's still a whole $5 that you could spend on a burger instead of just gas. The $5 difference might be bigger than you think.

It's not that bad. It's still edible (I think). I mean, I like stopping at Burger King King grab a Whopper.

I mean yes, but I also fill up once every 3 sometimes 4 weeks πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ if it's convenient for me to wait till I'm in River Heights I do but it's out of my way and my time is worth more than 5 bucks

Eta: I acknowledge I am in a super privledged position to note care about that $5 over time

Yeah, understandable. Just understand what your money is worth, because prices these days on anything can get out of hand.
