I just drove from Chillawack to Ladner today. Cheapest gas was at hyw 11 in Abbotsford 66.7. I drove along Hyw 10 and the prices jumped to 77.5 in Langley then back to about 76.3 near the ferry.

Hope this helps
Jason

Go to Point Roberts, Washington - it's the equivalent of .56 a liter.

on the corner of Fraser Hwy and 264th gas is 68.9. The price will say 72.4 but you get 3.5 cents off the listed price when you are at the pump.

No matter what we pay it is too much. the price per gallon is ~ $30 and out dollar has risen almost 20% over the past 4 months.

Blood gas companies are using the Iraq war to inflate the price then we get used to it. They said for us to expect 99.9 but i say crock. If it gets that high then I will go accross the line to get my gas.

Take #10 until you get in Langley, then take Frser Hwy out all the way. there are 3 gas stations. Shell, Chevron and ?????.

After gas keep taking the road all the way to #1 and you are in Abbotsford.

Sometimes there is a gas station about 5 km further down the road from the Chevron and they usually are cheaper even still. They should be mid 0.66. I always use my Chevron card so I need to go to Chevron for gas.

Point Roberts is about 5 minutes from the ferry. You can't miss the signs. I believe it's the first traffic light you come to... you turn right and head south.

Right at the Second traffic light.

Border line up has been about 15minutes lately, but worth the savings.

Lets all the ferry traffic pass you by.

PS Make sure everyone has ID to cross the border.
