For many of you, it might be a weekend with a long commute — whether you're a Swiftie driving down to Seattle for the Eras Tour or attending the Jays game or heading to Vancouver to watch the first weekend of Celebration of Lights fireworks (we recommend taking public transport) — and your vehicles might need some top up.
After a pricey start to July over the Canada Day long weekend at your local gas pumps (at over $2 per litre), New West's gas prices are starting to dip, albeit slowly.
Although nowhere near the $1.59 per litre price in Kelowna, B.C., currently the cheapest in the province, gas at pumps across New West is selling at an average of $1.94 per litre; slightly more than your neighbours in Burnaby.
The average in Burnaby stands at $1.90 per litre, whilst Metro Vancouver average stands at $1.92 as of 2 p.m. on July 21.
