    Vnezuela, where fuel is cheaper than mineral water





    Price per gallon in USD: Venezuela - $0.12

    Wow, that's lower than my personal record low paid for gas - $0.18/gal in the early 70's

      Hmm, the graph misses out on our local prices here (they are mentioned in the article you linked to though).

      $5.91 / US Gallon => $ 1.567 / l


      My brother recently went to Libia, and he said gas prices are extremely low (a couple of cents per liter).

                Very old data. The UK is approaching the £1/l or $1.90/l. And I'd like to know where it is only $2.60/gal in the USA. Nearer $4 these days in some places.

                Here, I pay ~CYP 0.56 = USD 1.15.

                    I read something recently that said Venezuala's domestic production of oil is way down and that they were making deals to buy and resell oil pumped from other coutries in order to avoid breaking existing supply contracts.

                      That pesky Law of Supply and Demand.

                      PS though it should be called the Law of Demand and Supply.

                        $0.07/gal in the early '70's during a 'gas war'. Filled up my modded GT-6 for <$1.00.

                          No, since those prices are per litre.
