What's the least amount you remember paying for gas?

[AndrewR]

I remember filling up my 1980 Pontiac Sunbird with $0.61/gallon gasoline from a Happy Mart gas station (something like that). I think that was 1988. Paid $5 to fill the tank! :Q

Now that's a little over two gallons...sad.

In my mind I seem to remember paying $.19 a gallon at Terrible Hearbst, one of the first Self Serve Gas Stations in the Bay Area but when I check the prices back in 1970 the lowest they go is $.28 a gallon so that's probably what I paid.

At this point, I'd be happy with sub-$1 again. 🙂

Well if you adjust the price back then for inflation of today I believe the $.28 a gallon is much more than $1.00. That said, it would be nice to pay under a buck a gallon.

In canada I paid about $.45/litre (1995) and in the US about $.99/gallon (2001)

 

[Tremulant]

$.90/gal a few years ago.

The early summer of 2000 it was below 90 cents a gallon, IIRC. I remember filling up with a $10 bill.

 

[rh71]

.90-something within the last decade... somewhere between '96-'99.

 

[Hyperblaze]

48 cents/liter

this was actually either last summer or the summer before.

it was that low for about 4 weeks then went back up to it's normal 60-70 cents/liter

 

[vood0g]

$0.90 around '97-98.

 

[KoolAidKid]

71 cents per gallong. This was sometime around 1985.

 

[dman]

~$.86/gal regular.

That didn't last long, ~1989 when I got my license and started driving. Gulf War not long thereafter.

 

[lobadobadingdong]

2000 $0.29 per gallon (gas war in the small town I grew up in 😀 lasted about 2 months from .29-.39)

 

2000 - $0.89/gallon

 

[Ausm]

.65 cents/gallon in the early '80's

I never knew gas was measured by the gallon. We always purchase it by the cubic foot!

Cheers!

 

[ohtwell]

About $ .99 a gallon. That was a few years ago though.

[PricklyPete]

[dragonballgtz]

I remember I paid $.95. I wish it cost that much now. Sometimes I have to use my bike to get around.🙁

 

[DougK62]

$.79

 

[Scouzer]

$0.62 a litre.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

$1.10 back in '94 or 95.

 

[otispunkmeyer]

meh....82pence for 1 litre of unleaded....95ron too. 82 pence is way more than a dollar for you lot. jus think...around $1.30 for a litre, then the government takes 80% of that instantly

 

[Aquaman]

0.39 Cdn a litre (1.87 Cdn a gallon) in the early 90's
