You assume everyone on this board lives in Ontario.

We're already paying HST on all of the things being added in Ontario. We also have the highest rate in Canada at 15%.

Only on special days do they tell us they're screwing us badly........Any other time, they just jack it like they do there.

Extra lube today guys -- It's gonna hurt a little more than normal.

I saw unusually large lineups at the pumps yesterday. All people with +$20k vehicles waiting in line, vehicle running for 15 minutes, getting 0 mpg...all to save about $5. 15 minutes of my time is worth a lot more than 5 bucks

I agree, that's crazy waiting in those line-ups, no way would I do that. I anticipated that and got it at cheap prices prior to those line-ups.

Reminds me of my first job pumping gas. It was busy around dinnertime and the cars were lined up waiting for 15 minutes or so. One jalopy finally got to the pump and asked for $0.65 worth ($0.40/L at the time). He'd probably burned twice that sitting there. For some reason he took offence when I asked if he'd like it right in the carb.
