I promised Moppet no matter how high the price of gas goes, I would never cut back on his kibbles.

    Fuel costs are rocketing… over here in Scotland unleaded petrol will cost you £1.11/$2.22 a litre.

    If you had filled up your tank over here 19 gallons would have cost you $210 dollars!

    Moppet would be shaking in his wee boots :)

    I don’t understand why fuel prices are what they are. How do you travel back and forth to work? How much is a gallon of milk? I guess a new type of fuel will eventually come about replacing what we have been using. I heard Exxon had about 11 billion in profits after it’s first quarter this year. All of this just doesn’t make any sense to me at all.

    No matter, a promise is a promise; there will always be kibble for Moppet.

    Thanks for commenting Townie.

    Hi PS….

    You can’t buy milk over here by the gallon, but 1 litre of milk costs £0.76/$1.52 - so a gallon would work out to be roughly $7.60. How does that compare with your prices?

    I use my car to get back and forth to work at the moment, but there is talk of the big oil companies raising the fuel prices in september this year to £1.50/$3.00 a litre for regular which would make it £7.50/$15.00 a gallon!… scarey stuff!

    Time to start getting the train/bus to work I think.

    Hello Townie,

    Your prices are much higher. A gallon of milk will cost us about $4.00 and we complain. Geez, what is your secret? How do you manage to get by when your prices are much higher than ours?

    The cost of living across here is getting beyond a joke!

    Unfortunately there is no secret .. you just have to pull in the reins and manage as best you can.

    I decided a few years ago to start cooking all our food scratch, much cheaper that way, there are no additives, and you know exactly what your eating… this has helped enourmously :)
