miron Champion Author Toronto Posts:17,263 Points:3,251,000 Joined:Feb 2004	Message Posted: May 17, 2013 1:06:06 PM Ignore miron Report Abuse Krutoj, for 30,000 you can get a $28 discount if you have CIBC Petropoints Mastercard... or $20 if you don't. You did not collect all the points that are available when you are using this Credit Card... plus 20% more combining it with a CAA membership. I am getting this amount of points (+30,000)every month and I use them whenever I want not just when they allow me to... they never expire. They also have so many promotions so you can get points faster. I am also getting my free CAA membership using them. If I would buy anything from the store I would get even more but everything in a gas station store is much more expensive as we all know. LCBO gift card... not for me :) I am the driver :P [Edited by: miron at 5/17/2013 1:08:54 PM EST]
krutoj Veteran Author Toronto Posts:318 Points:687,985 Joined:Oct 2001	Message Posted: May 17, 2013 10:55:09 AM Ignore krutoj Report Abuse Miron, I have collected petropoints for many years and there is nothing valuable I could get for them. Tell me what I can possibly get for 30000 points! Now Shell gas is better for my cars (power+mileage) so I don't mind their promos. And I definitely can use LCBO gift cards :)
miron Champion Author Toronto Posts:17,263 Points:3,251,000 Joined:Feb 2004	Message Posted: May 17, 2013 10:19:15 AM Ignore miron Report Abuse Krutoj, I just calculated: I would make an extra $1.41 (compared to buying at Petro) but I would have to spend another $10 for something that I do not need :( No thanks, Mr. Shell! When the price was 119.9 they did not think to have it :(

miron Champion Author Toronto Posts:17,263 Points:3,251,000 Joined:Feb 2004	Message Posted: May 17, 2013 10:01:26 AM Ignore miron Report Abuse What do you mean? Shall I go 5 times at Shell? :) Is this limited? I am wondering why all these 'givings out' are happening only when the prices are sky rocketing? Do they really think that we are so stupid not to notice? Let them have their own air miles! [Edited by: miron at 5/17/2013 10:02:48 AM EST]
krutoj Veteran Author Toronto Posts:318 Points:687,985 Joined:Oct 2001	Message Posted: May 16, 2013 6:20:04 PM Ignore krutoj Report Abuse Guys, go down south this weekend! Smokin Joe sells for 3.43 a gallon. If you are so patriotic to stay, use Shell promo: buy $20 of gas and $10 in-store (gift card, perhaps) and get 25 air miles. I'm sure Miron can repeat this 5 times! [Edited by: krutoj at 5/16/2013 6:20:48 PM EST]

So, I am applying it everywhere, like it or not! It does not have anything to do with the help we get from TGPT, it's all about total quality!

biffbarnes All-Star Author Toronto Posts:676 Points:16,815 Joined:Sep 2011	Message Posted: May 14, 2013 8:51:27 AM Ignore biffbarnes Report Abuse TGPT tweeted we are up half a cent overnight to $ 125.3 for Wednesday. Looks like Miron should get into the prediction business. Lol
miron Champion Author Toronto Posts:17,263 Points:3,251,000 Joined:Feb 2004	Message Posted: May 14, 2013 8:02:39 AM Ignore miron Report Abuse Unfortunately everyone is UP to 125.3 this morning :( so all yesterday predictions were wrong... if they could not raise the price they increased the margin... old tactics at work! Can I increase my salary too whenever I wish?

miron Champion Author Toronto Posts:17,263 Points:3,251,000 Joined:Feb 2004	Message Posted: May 13, 2013 12:07:20 PM Ignore miron Report Abuse It looks like they play the game in the morning when people are in hurry and do not pay attention on price... later in the day they join the others. Shell did the same last week... I'll take a look on my way home in the afternoon.
miron Champion Author Toronto Posts:17,263 Points:3,251,000 Joined:Feb 2004	Message Posted: May 13, 2013 12:00:06 PM Ignore miron Report Abuse Shell did the same last Thursday morning... today all stations along Erin Mills were at 124.8

It fizzled over the weekend, but some are now joining in. Could it be that some retailers are increasing their retail take ? TGPT hasnt said anything

The only exception was the Esso at Hurontario and Central Parkway. It was still at 124.8 TGPT showed no increase last night. What's going on, Biff? Prices have seldom increased on Mondays! They are showing no increase for Tuesday.
