Petrol giggles.
I got a huge kick out of refilling my bike for four dollars at the petrol station and getting scowled at by the folks paying $80 bucks a tank :)

Spare a thought for us poor Brits
paying vastly more for each unit volume of petrol than you do in dollars-land. Or, indeed, anywhere else (and that was in 2001 when they were half to 3/4 of what they are today...)

I'm in NZ land :(
It's not cheap here either.

really?
Price per liter/gallon?

1.63 NZD/Litre.
NZD is at .72 USD atm, if that helps.

That works out at
72.0p per litre, according to google currency converter today.

Petrol in the UK is currently around the 103.9p per litre mark (it's always .9p at the end!), which converts to 2.35NZD per litre. No wonder we all drive around in tiny little economy cars.
