Prices of Gas, what to expect next.



Gas prices take huge jump
- 09.30.2008 - Article Number: 2

Sue McGill waited behind half a dozen cars on Friday night just to save some cash topping up the gas tank in her mom's car after prices at Regina pumps jumped 11 cents that afternoon.

With the gas gauge on her own car nearing empty, McGill expected to be lining up again that night to fill it up as well.

"I noticed it is only at $1.32.9 here while other places on Albert (Street) are at $1.45.9," said McGill, who was idling on Saskatchewan Drive while she waited to fill up at the Regina Cabs gas station.

Drivers in some parts of the country faced gas prices that jumped as much as 13 cents a litre overnight as the threat of hurricane Ike to U.S. refineries along the Texas coast sent prices soaring.

Many motorists weren't pleased that prices spiked before the storm had even made landfall.

"I don't think it should go up unless there is an issue. If there is an issue, well then go for it. I don't think they should be dinging us because they think there might be," said McGill.
