$4.099 for E10 87 yesterday with 10 cents of love from Jenny.

Jenny had 50 cents of love for me today. $5.499 for the E0 92. $32.33 to fill the moto. |
Jenny has not worked for me for several years now. Tried multiple versions of area code, too. The little guy in the gas pump says it's invalid, or something like that.
On a recent trip to central Minnesota, I saw prices ranging from $3.40 to just under three bucks. It dropped about fifteen pennies locally towards the end of my two week visit. My airfare was the same either way. Maybe I should ask for a discount?
Here in the land of trees and ammo, it has dropped to $3.55 for a gallon of ethanol blended 10% swill. Gotta fill the Chevy soon and I ain't looking forward to it. |
Chevron is my go-to for Jenny. Locally, it's the Safeway/Albertsons rewards club.
76 recognizes the number but doesn't give a discount at the pump.

You have to put on your hi-heel sneakers---wear your wig hat on your head and go inside and insist that your name is Jenny. |

My only local option for the Jenny is Chevron. I usually don't buy fuel there, as they tend to be the most expensive in town. But I have tried and failed to use Jenny many times. Maybe I have to try again, just to see what happens.
I buy fuel at a local, independent, non-corporate co-op fuel station. They are very popular, often have the best price, and have fresh fuel trucks several times a week. They also have red dye diesel for my tractor, and several pumps with pure gas, non ethanol, for my small engine equipment.

Last week in Prince George BC it was $1.839/L for diesel, $1.619/L for 87, $1.679/L for 89, $1.852/L for 91, $1.919/L for 94.
Back here in Alberta it's $1.639/L most places for diesel, around here $1.349 for 87. In Calgary yesterday we paid $1.119 for 87!

Lucky for me, my lovely wife was given the name Jennifer. She is much better than a ten cent fuel discount at Chevron.
Also, she hates the song, since it came out when she was a young lass. I still sing it to her on occasion. But her mother and I are the only people allowed to call her Jenny. Ever.

Thanks. And once again, I'm lucky because she likes it, too. It's one of the few things I bring to the party.

It's stuff like this that will keep you from having sigline privileges, mister!

My son says $3.629 for E10 87 yesterday, $80ish to fill my truck which he's been borrowing. He prefers that to the $120 it cost him to fill the tank the last time he borrowed it!
