A VI government survey of gasoline prices earlier this month reported St. John’s two stations were charging $4.65 and $4.36 a gallon.
HUh? $4.65 isnt so bad, its the same in Connecticut!!
It’s over $8.00 a gallon in Italy—so get used to it. We had a free lunch for too long. It’s time to go to alternative energy sources….how about puytting a large funnel on top of the VI legislature and capture all the hot air and convert it to electricity? 🙂
Here in New Brunswick, Canada we’re paying $1.48 per liter which is equivalent to $5.63 per US gallon and the scenery is nothing compared to STJ!
What’s so bad? To put gas prices in perspective, it is $8.75 in France, $8.88 in Germany, and $8.76 in the UK. Of course it’s only $2.25 in China! Do you see the problem?
Hey STJ,
Welcome to the rest of us in the USA ! At least you are not commuting an hour a day to work by car !
maybe the higher gas prices will get some of the big SUV type vehicles off the narrow VI roads. Most of their tires have not seen a dirt road, few of the back seats and cargo areas are ever used, and now it probably costs them $4-8 just to drive to the Post Office
Gas prices wouldn’t be an issue if you rode a bicycle instead!
