Ouch!!! $2.87 for 93 when I checked earlier in the week AND I'm getting 4% 'cash back' on my fuel purchases at Costco with their Visa card I'm still enjoying the sub $2.50 price for 87

It may be worth my while to get a Costo Visa card then, as my cc's are Mastercards.

i think if i did the conversion properly we are now at $8.00 / gallon for 91 octane

That is a bit high I'm afraid
About $1.90 CDN per litre.
There are 3.8 litres in a US gallon, so about $7.22 CDN per US gallon.
The Canadian dollar is trading at around 78 cents US right now.
So our price for a US gallon of 91 octane gas is about $5.65 US.
What really hurts though is the difference in price between 87 octane and 91 octane gas. We spend up to 30 cents more per litre for "premium".
Unfortunately, we lack refining capacity in western Canada, so are gas prices are at the mercy of the US spot market.

couldnt make it up to costco gas, (mmm sweet, sweet savings) had to fill up at some lone station in larkspur, and it was about $4.15 a gallon. god bless my lead foot.

This morning lowest I found was $2.56 for 87 and 93 was $3.05
Feel for the guys on the west coast but just guessing this is the beginning.

I must be the odd man out because I have no clue what it costs, I just know I have to have it and I run premium only so I know I'm paying a "premium" for it.

Filled up at Costco in San Leandro, CA (Bay Area). $3.69/gal for premium. Makes me not think about getting another car. Glad i'm getting 36.2 mpg (actual calculated) on my daily 60 mile roundtrip commute.

I don't pay attention to the prices either. I need it so I get it. The car gets great gas mileage so I fill up every 2 weeks. I guess if I had a car that got 10 mpg, or if it got really expensive I would pay attention.

Why are folks talking about Regular?

For premium (93 where I live) it's currently around $3.15.... no idea what regular is going for. Both my Abarth (when it was running) and my PT Cruiser GT are on tunes that require premium. The PT GT is a gas hog, as well so it hurts extra worse that the Abarth is down.

[Southernroadrunner]

I always mention 87 octane prices because not all the folks on here drive turbo cars. That's why I mention both prices.

I'm happy to run my '17 L on 87 just as I did my '15L and a half-dozen Volvo turbos since 2004. Having noticed zero difference between 87 and 93 or any mix thereof for all those years, I'm happy to save the $600 difference per year. Many others have noticed the same...THAT's why we're talking about "regular".
