The right place. The right time.

In Mississauga, there’s this gas station on the corner of Derry and Kennedy. They know me well. I stop in there and pick up a coffee every morning (and, by the way, next week I step down to large coffees in the morning), and every once in a while pop in for a cold drink of some sort. Speedpass helps.

Anyways, pretty much every Thursday this place decides to drop its gas prices to somewhere around the 68 cent mark, causing major lot congestion. It’s become the local watering hole. Or in a Pumba-esque sort of way, the local gassing hole. I topped up my tank for the mere price of $20.

I also figure that by forgoing the morning coffee, I can save myself close to $400.00 a year.

And I can even remember when gas was 50 cents per litre or less. Of course, back then you could buy a burger for a dollar, but I digress.

    Hey, it’s Silent Wonder from CMC. Thought I’d come by and say hello since your sig is quite insistent.

    I look at money spent on coffee as an investment that pays off well if I’m still awake at lunchtime.
