How Much Is The Price of Gas in Your Country, State, or Town? email this discussion to a friend?

My parents are traveling to Europe in a week. Mainly The Netherlands and surrounding countries. We are gathering info on how much spending money they will need including money for gas. They think that gas costs around $6 a gallon in Holland. I guess we should stop complaining about $2.29 a gallon here in Southern Cal. Anyway, what's the price of gas where you live?

In the UK it is about £1 per litre so £4.50per gallon which I guess is about $7 per gallon.

The increased prices here bother us, but we should count our blessings.


myLot reputation of 98/100. gtargirl (1242)   ranked 26 out of 1,864 in traveling  7 months ago

Wow! I am counting my blessings. $7 a gallon would start a riot here. How do you guys do it? Hopefully taking a bus will be cheaper.

Gas is getting rather expensive here in UK. In the Midlands and the Northwest it is around 97p per litre. Not sure what that works out as in Euros or USD.
I can only speak for the Northwest and Midlands, as I live in both currently.


myLot reputation of 98/100. gtargirl (1242)   ranked 26 out of 1,864 in traveling  7 months ago

That might be close to $6 or $7 per gallon. That's quite a lot of overtime we would have to do to be able to pay for fuel. Hope there's signs of prices going down in the UK.

Here in Kentucky the gas prices are $2.25-$2.32 all depending in where you get it and what type you get. We usually get the unleaded kind. Wow,$.600 a gallon is alot and when it was almost that high people could barely afford to get to work and back or take their kids where they needed to go. I wish them all the luck on their travels and hope they get to enjoy themselves tremendously and bring back lots of souvenirs. And may they have a safe trip and return.


myLot reputation of 98/100. gtargirl (1242)   ranked 26 out of 1,864 in traveling  7 months ago

Yes, I know that around the US, unleaded is still way below $3 a gallon. $6 a gallon would drive us into the public transport system, though prices of tickets would probably go up too.

Our gas prices here in Texas are currently 2.09 a gallon. They've went up ten cents in the last week because last week it was 1.99 a gallon. 6.00 a gallon is crazy. I would have to walk if it was that much here.:-D

Or we could start riding our bikes everywhere.

well i wount be able to help you in any ways sad, because i don't live in Europe, but still i would like to tell you the cost of gas in my country. i live in India and the cost of fuel is very high here, it is something around 2$ per liter.it is very costly here .


myLot reputation of 98/100. gtargirl (1242)   ranked 26 out of 1,864 in traveling  7 months ago

I don't know what that would be in USD, but it could possibly be around $8 a gallon. We would protest in front of gas stations. Thanks kapil, I appreciate your input.

Our gas is about 90 cents a liter here in Winnipeg, MB. Canada. I do not know that would be in gallons. But it does work out to a lot. It used to be over $1.25 but I guess someone complained because (say it was me here on myLot. Do you think one of our government is also a member? lol) we do produce oil and gasoline here and do not need to import it.


myLot reputation of 98/100. gtargirl (1242)   ranked 26 out of 1,864 in traveling  7 months ago

How come we don't get oil from Canada? It's a mystery to me.

We briefly went up to $2.15, and are back down to $2.05. I live right in the middle of Kansas. We often heard that our area had cheaper gas than anywhere else.


myLot reputation of 98/100. gtargirl (1242)   ranked 26 out of 1,864 in traveling  7 months ago

That is pretty cheap. We are around $2.39. It fluctuates.

At $2.29 a gallon (US) that is very cheep.

We pay about $1.20 (AU) a Litre (thats about 3 1/3 Litres to a gallon) So our price is about $4.20 (AU) ($5.20 US)a Gallon here in Australia..

But that depends where you live, in the country areas it can be much higher and if no other petrol stations around the price is very high.
