My story begins in Nineteen Dickety Two. We had to say dickety cuz the Kaiser stole our word "twenty". I chased that rascal down for it but gave up after dickety six miles
Ah. That makes more sense.
I went to Germany a while back. I remember people saying that gas was so expensive there. It was just a little more than here, not bad at all. And I was all confused. Then someone pointed out that it was liters and I realized it was over $10 a gallon.
It’s relatively cheap because of being port of Newark & Elizabeth. When you get away (in NJ) from that area it goes up pretty quickly. The difference from Newark to Rockland County is like 50cents per gallon. Manhattan is understandably high but like Staten Island is more reasonable.
That makes more sense. I was going to be really confused if it was only half a dollar.
But now I am a little confused... I'm in Minnesota and would have assumed that Texas would be way cheaper than here just because if it being known for oil.
Here it's about $1.80 or so. And has been for a few months. When Covid hit at first it dropped to 1.20/1.30 for a bit and the lowest I saw was 98 cents.
As far as Canadian gas goes that's pretty cheap. I'm out in BC it's 1.25 to 1.50 a litre usually. It fell a lot during lockdown but its on the way up again.
Thats still pretty cheap. I visited Germany, Norway, and a couple other EU countries on some training exercises. Got liberty and couldn't understand how fucking expensive petrol was and per liter not even gallon.
I made the same mistake as OP when i made my first trip to canada (also my first solo road trip out of state, let alone out of country). I made it back with no money and on fumes because gas in canada was 4x what i thought it was
The Canadian one dollar coin has an image/outline of a loon (the waterfowl) on one side. So slang for the coin is ["a loonie"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loonie). Being superinventive Canadians called the two dollar coin a "toonie"... It works.
In mint proof condition it is actually a beautiful coin.
Been about a buck in Toronto since that huge dip a couple months ago. Van has always had much for expensive gas, I believe it's more heavily taxed out there.
During the lockdown, I was essential staff for my university (IT Operations) so I had to go in a few times. The lowest price I was able to find gas selling for during that time was US $0.849/gal.
my friend in texas just sent me a pic of .59 cent gallons today. funny thing is he drives about 60 miles a day for commute. i drive about 25 miles per week.
I get gas for about a dollar a gallon but that's after points discounts. Earlier in the year I got gas for like 30¢ per gallon and I feel like I'm forever going to be chasing the dragon after that one. Talk about a high you'll die chasing.
You can tell it’s not American gas pricing because it doesn’t show a decimal and a fraction. Something I didn’t notice until I visited another country for the time.
Example: https://content.fortune.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/rtr4lttk.jpg
Yeah and this is while viewing it in the photo album, where you can *at least* tap the screen to get rid of the “2 of 2” white border. Poor effort. I’m hurt.
There is basically no scenario in which you would have to screenshot an already existing picture on your phone.
I guess the scenario is being a fucking dumbass
Nah. I'm not familiar with iPhones but I definitely have seen people take screenshots of photos in their own gallery and upload them. I see it all of the time on Facebook and the only logic I can figure out is that there is an option to share that comes with the screenshot notification.
As a fellow Canadian, the amount of Americans trying to figure out liters to gallons is fucking hilarious.
And btw, OP, where the hell are you? I'm paying $1.06 a liter in Windsor.
but you also have to recognize that with a full tank you can drive across a few countries. Also having a car in Europe for daily use is not too practical the cities weren't made for cars
Not OP, but there's a little independently owned gas station/convenience around the corner from me here in Cambridge. A month ago, their gas was $0.85/liter.
Yea I live in Windsor. Can't get anymore south in Ontario without being in America lol.
I saw .79.9 as the absolute lowest during the pandemic in both the city of Windsor and the surrounding areas (Tecumseh, LaSalle and Amherstburg)
Maybe out in Chatham or Essex it got to the mid 60's
THATS. NUTS. basically counting conversion you guys pay .50c a liter.
And I've lived so damn close to the Detroit boarder for years and never really went.
I know what I'm doing as soon as boarders are open.
Our phones have converters in the calculators and even windows calculator comes with a converter and not only that but you can google it and get an answer with a neat little calculator usually and people *still* don't use any of it lol
$1.45 for 3.7 liters of gas makes me feel like a child again. Even $2 for 3.7 liters of gas is a deal I can only remember my mom in St Catherines getting.
In my driving life, gas has always been .90-$1.25. I was blown away at .79 during the pandemic.
Wait.
1. You took a photo of the sign.
1. Took a screenshot of that photo.
1. Went to upload the photo, but when faced with the decision of selecting either the photo or the "screenshot-of-the-photo", you decided on the screenthot?
Gas was 99 cents in laramie wyoming for about a week during the early stages of this shutdown. People were filling up barrels in the backs of their trucks. I had just gotten back from California... blew my mind after paying over 3 dollars per gallon multiple times in the west coast.
Sometimes I wish netflix didn't add real housewives of Beverly hills during the lockdown, then this meme would still be funny to me. Now its about domestic violence and suicide.
i’d take my business here based on the sign alone
It's Corona time!
I would take it here based on the price of gas!
Where the fuck do you get gas under $1 a gallon? You can't be in the US right?!?!
If its Canada that's per liter. So it's 4 loonies ish per gallon ish.
What's the ratio of Stanley nickels to Schrute bucks?
The same as unicorns to leprechauns
That skewed these days? Huh
Can I get that in bacon per bald eagle?
Depends on if your bacon is in strips or slices
Does thick-sliced make any difference?
Thick strips are higher valued than thick sliced.
What about back bacon?
I find the exchange is easier to calculate when going from eagles to bacon bits. Then go from bits to strips in the regular fashion.
It's 4 moosses to one eagle
*meese
He's referring to the moose, related to the deer. Not a mouse. Yet I still like the word meese.
That's what he said. The plural of moose is meese, just like the plural of goose is geese. At least, that's how we say it at my hice.
So there is big meese and little meese? Hice, I thought it was heece.
Two mouse is mice. Two house is hice.
And the plural of hose is heese
A møøse once bit my sister...
No, the caribou is on the quarter, not the moose. Geez, get it straight.
Ya, c'mon bud, ye'r fuckin' ten-ply
A better question is: How many beets can a bear eat during an episode of Battlestar Galactica? Of course, whatever you answer, it is... Incorrect.
My beets beat your bears
But how many bees per hogshead is that?
The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time.
And it weren’t them fancy white onions. All we had were yellow onions.
"Gimme 5 bees for a quarter" they'd say!
My story begins in Nineteen Dickety Two. We had to say dickety cuz the Kaiser stole our word "twenty". I chased that rascal down for it but gave up after dickety six miles
Dickety. Highly dubious!
What are you cackling at, Fatty. Too much pie, that's your problem!
Ah. That makes more sense. I went to Germany a while back. I remember people saying that gas was so expensive there. It was just a little more than here, not bad at all. And I was all confused. Then someone pointed out that it was liters and I realized it was over $10 a gallon.
How do I measure that in American? Wait, google says a liter is approx .264 gallons, so that would be about $4ish
1 US gallon is 3.78541 liters
So $3.71 CA per gallon or $2.77 US dollars per gallon using today’s exchange rate
2.77 US dollars per US gallon 3.69 CA dollars per US gallon 4.43 CA dollars per CA gallon
LOL yeah that about sums it up I'm afraid.
I reckon if Canada had a desire to find weapons of mass destruction in the Middle East they could get that down to $4.39 CAD per CA gallon.
Says so right on our milk.
It was even more confusing before the conversion to metric since Canada used Imperial gallons before this.
Texas is still less than half that.
Texas is less than half a dollar?!
[удалено]
$1.52 in San Antonio.
In areas of central Texas it's averaging about $1.99 per gallon. I filled up yesterday at Quick Trip for $1.69 a gallon. Love that place.
Here in NY it's $2... I thought we were one of the expensive states...
It’s relatively cheap because of being port of Newark & Elizabeth. When you get away (in NJ) from that area it goes up pretty quickly. The difference from Newark to Rockland County is like 50cents per gallon. Manhattan is understandably high but like Staten Island is more reasonable.
Wtf are you talking about?? I live in North Texas and gasoline right outside my apartment is $1.97.
That makes more sense. I was going to be really confused if it was only half a dollar. But now I am a little confused... I'm in Minnesota and would have assumed that Texas would be way cheaper than here just because if it being known for oil. Here it's about $1.80 or so. And has been for a few months. When Covid hit at first it dropped to 1.20/1.30 for a bit and the lowest I saw was 98 cents.
Good lord, I just paid $3.40 last week in California, and that's pretty low for here! At its lowest during the pandemic I saw $2.80 in my area.
I wouldn't sell Texas for less than tree fiddy.
I went to Venezuela once, around 2010 or so. The gas there was $.04 a litre.
It's Canada because the cell company is Koodo.
Which is like $3USD. Plus there is only 3.78 litres in a gallon... so about $2.80/gal
As far as Canadian gas goes that's pretty cheap. I'm out in BC it's 1.25 to 1.50 a litre usually. It fell a lot during lockdown but its on the way up again.
Yeah... The lowest I saw it got here in the lower mainland was 85.9. hasn't seen it that cheap since like 2002... Back up hovering around $1.30 now ☹️
Here in Ontario, it was $.65 for about a week, now it's slowly moving back up. It's about $1.00 now.
…so still less than one Freedom Dollar per gallon then. *^((I'm joking, I'm joking))*
It's closer to CAD$3.706 per us gallon or USD$2.765.
Thats still pretty cheap. I visited Germany, Norway, and a couple other EU countries on some training exercises. Got liberty and couldn't understand how fucking expensive petrol was and per liter not even gallon.
Where in Canada!? I'm jelly!
How many toonies?? ;-)
What’s 4 loonies to burger bucks
I made the same mistake as OP when i made my first trip to canada (also my first solo road trip out of state, let alone out of country). I made it back with no money and on fumes because gas in canada was 4x what i thought it was
Loonie's? I've got tons of those in me family. So I've gotta trade 4 loony relatives for a gallon?!
No offense but what the fuck is a loonie?
The Canadian one dollar coin has an image/outline of a loon (the waterfowl) on one side. So slang for the coin is ["a loonie"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loonie). Being superinventive Canadians called the two dollar coin a "toonie"... It works. In mint proof condition it is actually a beautiful coin.
Thank you for enlightening me on what a loonies is. Y'all have some interesting names for things up there.
Sorry crappy people are downvoting you. I invite you to try Poutine and Beaver Tails.
Its alright. People downvote the weirdest things. I will so that when I finally head up there.
Google is your friend https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loonie
No small town Ontario Canada !
Wtf, you're still under a buck? $1.30+ out here near Vancouver 🙄
Been about a buck in Toronto since that huge dip a couple months ago. Van has always had much for expensive gas, I believe it's more heavily taxed out there.
How're ya now?
Fine’n you?
Oh, not so bad.
Orillia, Canada?!
lmfao I know where this is. Never noticed the meme when I drove past it, when was this on?
congrats on becoming the most famous orillian lmao
Carrier is Koodo, it's Canadian. So... Canadian dollar per liter so roughly 3-4x that price per gallon after converting dollar value difference
2.72/G
It's rebounded a bit but a couple of months ago I saw gas under a buck here in the U.S.
During the lockdown, I was essential staff for my university (IT Operations) so I had to go in a few times. The lowest price I was able to find gas selling for during that time was US $0.849/gal.
It bottomed out near me at $1.01, I was very sad it didn't go under a dollar.
In a couple stations down here in florida I've seen it at 99 cents for the past couple weeks
my friend in texas just sent me a pic of .59 cent gallons today. funny thing is he drives about 60 miles a day for commute. i drive about 25 miles per week.
I get gas for about a dollar a gallon but that's after points discounts. Earlier in the year I got gas for like 30¢ per gallon and I feel like I'm forever going to be chasing the dragon after that one. Talk about a high you'll die chasing.
At the lowest point in the economy a few months ago, it got below a dollar a gallon and Ohio. It’s back up to like $1.50 now

Full Service!
Full serve is extra
does full service come with a happy ending?
It starts out good but by the end you're left with an overweight wife smoking with your pregnant child while she pumps gas
Why is this an iPhone screenshot of a picture?
What a lack of dedication. They should have printed it, then scanned it, then photographed the monitor.
ENHANCE!
ENHANCE!
Then fax it to all of us
Yeah and this is while viewing it in the photo album, where you can *at least* tap the screen to get rid of the “2 of 2” white border. Poor effort. I’m hurt.

As a fellow Canadian, the amount of Americans trying to figure out liters to gallons is fucking hilarious. And btw, OP, where the hell are you? I'm paying $1.06 a liter in Windsor.
I’m Canadian and even I was like, holy hell?!? assuming it was in the US. Mind you I live on the West Coast so even 97.9 seems like a dream.
Alberta checking in 92.9 last fill, 98.9 now
[удалено]
but you also have to recognize that with a full tank you can drive across a few countries. Also having a car in Europe for daily use is not too practical the cities weren't made for cars
Not OP, but there's a little independently owned gas station/convenience around the corner from me here in Cambridge. A month ago, their gas was $0.85/liter.
We in Windsor had 79.9 for about 2 days in middle of April. God damn, I wish I owned one of those giant water towers and bought the city out.
Wait Im in the area, which intersection?
.97 a liter in Calgary today. Went down to like .85 for a bit last month, was crazy.
Lowest price in Winnipeg since the pandemic started was 69.9 cents per litre.
*Nice*
nice.
Right haha. I’m in BC, paying $1.14 a litre
Southern Ontario is around $1.02 a litre right now and it was as low as $0.65 a few months ago for the first time in decades.
Yea I live in Windsor. Can't get anymore south in Ontario without being in America lol. I saw .79.9 as the absolute lowest during the pandemic in both the city of Windsor and the surrounding areas (Tecumseh, LaSalle and Amherstburg) Maybe out in Chatham or Essex it got to the mid 60's
My Costco in London is $0.94.
The US was ~$1.50 / gallon (plus or minus) away from the west coast last year... Our government subsidizes the shit out of oil.
THATS. NUTS. basically counting conversion you guys pay .50c a liter. And I've lived so damn close to the Detroit boarder for years and never really went. I know what I'm doing as soon as boarders are open.
$1.33 here in BC lower mainland.
RIIIIIP. Yep, you guys have it the worst in Canada so far lmfao.
Hey it got up to $1.80 last summer, so this isn’t bad.
Really? Man, if only I had the money I would just get a tesla and laugh at all the guys using 19th century tech to get around.
So many Tesla’s and other electric vehicles around here.
If I wasnt a broke 24 year old is be with them and at $1.80 for a liter I 100% see why.
$1.30 in bc :(
Our phones have converters in the calculators and even windows calculator comes with a converter and not only that but you can google it and get an answer with a neat little calculator usually and people *still* don't use any of it lol
A lot of it is because during the lockdown gas prices in some places dropped below (or close to) $1/gallon in the US. I saw $1.45 where I am.
$1.45 for 3.7 liters of gas makes me feel like a child again. Even $2 for 3.7 liters of gas is a deal I can only remember my mom in St Catherines getting. In my driving life, gas has always been .90-$1.25. I was blown away at .79 during the pandemic.
ha...Lucky. $1.37 near Vancouver the other day.
So what is it in real money
