Holy CATS Batman!

#1 Post by BobG » Mon Jun 10, 2013 11:56 am

This weekend, we moored on Chatfield Reservoir, on the west side of Metro Denver.

Fuel price on the dock?

$5.51 per gallon!!!

That's for regular unleaded...

And I thought our lake was bad in the $4.50 range.

I paid about $5.20 per gallon in Nova Scotia last week.

Came home and paid $3.14 per gallon for unleaded. I guess it's all the free healthcare for the difference. Beer was $12.99 and $13.99 per six pack, plus 15% sales taxes.

Welcome to my lake Bob. Hope other than the gas price you had a good time! I put fuel in my tank Sunday morning and that 5.50 price sucked! Makes me glad we mainly just troll around the lake fishing and only tube a handful of times a year.

A couple years ago the price at the dock was only a 50-75 cent premium, but last year things started getting out of whack.
