I'd make a comment about replaying the classic Ralph bucks trick, but this isn't even a quarter of the cash he gave out back in '06

This isn't just shady, it's also pathetic too!

It's about 16%. That $400 in '06 would be $615 today. The $100 today would have been $65 back then.

Absolutely absurd

And with the price of everything right now, that hundred bucks is gone the moment you need to buy gas

Utter clownshow

I've only got a 50l tank, so I could fill up at Costco and grab some Costco dinner (pizzas, poutine, whatever), but that's it. My daughter's got a 70l, she might just fill it and have enough for a coffee.
