Author Topic: Leeping Lizards, gas prices has risen 8 cents in a week! Paul G.

If you used a tank of gas over a three-week period going to and from work and shopping, it would not surprise me. On the mainland, even if I cut unnecessary trips, I go through one tank of gas in about 4 days minimum doing the same. That gets expensive.  |  IP: Logged Claude S.

I paid $27.50 today. -Claude  |  IP: Logged Per Hauberg Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 883 From: Malling, Denmark Registered: Jul 2000 posted 03-18-2003 07:18 PM                        One US Gallon = 3,8 liter in danish messure. 1 liter unleaded octane 95 today is 7,50 danish kroner = a bit over one dollar. Which again means, that Claudes 13 gallon tank = 50 liter is 375 danish kroner = about 50 $. The danish tax dept. is everywhere. My 8 year old Volvo (945 classic) could be sold today for not less than 150.000 kr = about 20.000 $, and the tickets for my little flea cirkus goes for 50 kr = 7 $ for normal films. One understands, why the Hasselblad gear had to be chanced for digital. Otherwise the bus fare might also be tough. By the way - if it means anything at all, coming from here - those photos are really great, Claude. -Thanks for sharing ! p.  |  IP: Logged Claude S.
