The price of oil could fall, the price of gas in the states could fall, but AAFES will raise the price of gas for us over her just to make more profit off of us. | It always the way when they've got a "captive" customer base. It's like the way that hospitals in this country charge extortinate prices for patients to use telephones - something like cost 39p off-peak and 40p during peak times for ptients to receive incoming calls. But they're not allowed to use mobile phones!!
So much for a free market  |

Country: | Heh, it's funny watching foreigners complain about prices of fuel. I can't imagine the riots if U.S fuel prices matched ours... and we got oil per barrell CHEAPER on the import market.

Country:  | i thought I'd revive this thread our prices have dropped from in USD
4.37 for a US gal or 1.04 /l
3.27 /gal or .86/l
I'm going to assume the price of fuel in the US is going the other way due to the dramatic fall of the green back
