    Its that magic barrier that we thought would never be crossed, yet today, after 10 years, it happened. Like everyone though, I realise there's no such thing as a free lunch!

    $0.49/liter (US), ~ $0.61/liter (AUS) here in the midwest....lowest price in the US right now is $.40/liter (US) ~ $0.49/liter (AUS). There has to be a bottom though, all the fracking that's pushed us to lead the world in oil output is losing it's cost/benefit quickly, so I think it's simply a matter of time before we hit bottom and start back up.

    Our last fillup was 98.9 cents (Can) per liter. It's around 101.9 cents now I think. Love that ".9" cents...

    That's why I always make sure I have a full tank when I drive up from Seattle to Delta for business.... ;-)
