As the Crude Oil price continues to fall on the world markets, the gasoline service station’s cartel in the Kelowna area decide it’s time to increase the price of their gasoline. We recently saw the price charged by all stations in Kelowna and district jump from 99.9 cents a litre to 109.9 cents per litre overnight.
Kelowna motorists who plan on driving north to Vernon, Armstrong, Enderby, Salmon Arm and Kamloops should not fill up if they have sufficient fuel to get to any of these locations. Those going south can fill up in Summerland for 101.9 cents per litre and Penticton for 99.9 cents per litre.
If you are heading north as of Monday morning (February 23rd), prices are 103.9 in Vernon and Armstrong, 103.9 in Enderby, 97.0 in Salmon Arm, Sorrento 97.9 and 96.9 in Kamloops. This could save you up to 10 cents a litre or 45 cents per gallon. With an average fill up of 60 litres, the savings can be significant.
Why support service stations who seem to increase their price when the cost of the crude oil goes down. The summer months are coming and most likely here in Kelowna we will see prices increase again each weekend on a Thursday or Friday as in the past. We need fuel, but at what price should we have to pay?
