I fill up in some hick towns between Collingwood and Toronto. As low as 1.12 from what I've seen when passing through. Being privately owned, they're just not open 24/7, though.

Same here. Gas keeps going up little by little. Not sure why.
We are at $3.16 per gallon at Sams Club. And $3.20 per gallon at Shell.
It's gone up over .20 cents over the past couple months.

$3.63/gallon at the Shell gas station in Newark, CA
I hope that the fiscal cliff doesn't cause gas prices to go up

The Conoco was $3.09 this afternoon, so I'm sure the rest of the stations will follow suit tomorrow.

Three hours ago -- $3.25/gallon for regular 87 octane at the former Arco (Portland Ave. just off I-5, Tacoma).
Other "cheap" stations like the Shell on tribal land in Fife have gas for $3.49/gallon.

Yes it does, didn't think about premium when I wanted the extra power and opted for the Subaru Forester XT
Oh well still a fun car!

Up to 1.30/L in Toronto.
I can imagine what it'd be like to gas up on premium these days. 2 fillups would cost more than my monthly insurance.

I can't believe the prices have gone so high! and I was hoping it was gonna drop from the 1.25 mark then it went up 3cents and then again to 1.30 by the end of the week.

^^Yeah, can't complain too much about having to pay $3.29 for "Premium" (91 octane) here in Durango.
...although the octane ratings here make me scratch my head...86/88/91 instead of 87/89/93 like I've seen everywhere my whole life.

well i have heard that engines at high altitude are able to perform the same at lower octane rating than when the same engine is operating at low altitude. I guess there are engine "ping/knock" issues that can occur from running an engine at lower octane ratings. That's a problem that occurs when a high compression engine has fuel in it that "detonates" at a lower compression causing misfiring in the cylinder. Apparently most modern engines recommend that you operate them at a 87 minimum octane rating but the 85 rating has kinda been grandfathered in at high altitude because it works.
Edit: after a little research... since the air is less dense at altitude you can use a lower octane rating because when air/fuel mix is compressed the combination of less dense air and the less compressible (less compressible fuels are more prone to autoignition/ the timing issue) fuel actually allows for comparable compression of 87 octane fuel at low altitude. But if you got a JAG put premium in it no matter what altitude. You spent 100 K on the car best take care of it. If you have a 91 honda civic. well then screw it.

Drive from Brampton to Blue via highway 10 and highway 124. I'll Google Maps the route if it helps explain it:
http://maps.google.ca/maps?saddr=Atkins+Cir&daddr=43.7213781,-79.8381821+to:43.7427744,-79.8369477+to:44.0838465,-80.1770782+to:44.4705461,-80.253167+to:Gord+Canning+Dr%2FVillage+Crescent&hl=en&ll=44.418824,-80.264053&spn=0.247422,0.528374&sll=43.730484,-79.834127&sspn=0.062579,0.132093&geocode=FQZ1mgIdsX8--w%3BFaIimwIdGsQ9-ynH_2VN_RMriDHS5Hutmb2V7w%3BFTZ2mwId7cg9-ylztkG2NhEriDF401yG2lP54g%3BFYaqoAIdSpg4-ykvYTsa2lYqiDG0_jnoNqds9g%3BFRKRpgIdEW83-ykhSn5fX3oqiDGsG_f83SJpFA%3BFS8TpwIdzIY2-w&mra=dpe&mrsp=2&sz=14&via=1,2,3,4&t=m&z=12
I made this route last year. It's the fastest route to Blue from the west end since you skip all the bullshit on HWY 400 and drive pretty much the same speed anyway. I've gone from Blue Mountain to my driveway in 1 hour 20 minutes before.

I guess it is a good thing that it stays constant now instead of going up more. it hasn't moved in like a week from 3.65 for 93 octane.

Care to share what route you use? or might be faster coming from the east? maybe even post it in the Regional thread as well.
Gas prices gonna be dropping 1.5cents/L tonight in Toronto something like $1.29/L

Thanks for the lesson. :)
I have a Bimmer, that clearly states on the gas cap not to use less than 91 octane...didn't spend $100k on it, but enough to take care of it properly. I used 89 octane once and definitely noticed a huge difference.

$3.17 today for the cheap stuff. Odd how it's jumped 35 cents in the span of about 10 days.
