Since it's been crazy down south right now with all those Black Friday, Cyber Monday sales, plus it's holiday season. I don't even want to attempt a border crossing.

It's not that far off... I think it was at 1.028 this morning, or something like that.

yea, but once it crosses that line, people are more hesitant to go down across the border... kinda like how people think it's such an awesome deal when gas drops from $1.30 to $1.27 per litre... saving that 3 cents a litre doesn't mean much.. it's saving $1.50 on a 50L fill up... big whoop, but i always see a huge lineup at the gas station when it drops a few cents

it was worse before when gas was at around 60 cents. i remember it dropped 3-4 cents at the royal oak and rumble chevron, and the line up was out the gas station and almost at watling. i was going to get gas but i saw the line and said screw it. and then i saw my mom in the line up lol.
but gas is cheap now, it was at 136 or something now it's at 125. that's like 10 cents off man! savings of 5 dolla!
