I have been wanting to rant about the gas prices here in Yarmouth…!! For the last 1.5 yrs.. we have one of the highest gas prices .. all over Nova Scotia. Regulating gas prices by the government.. did not help one bit .. to the consumer like us. Stablizing gas prices took effect last year July 1st but we are still paying sometimes as much as 1.17/litre.
Our car is very small.. and yet.. we pay like 40 to 45 bucks to fill our tank every week.. depending on whether we go outta town or not. If we do, it is more. A trip up to Halifax cost us about 120.00 in gas alone. Which means .. we pay like 360.00 Malaysian Ringgit in gas. You tell me.. whether i would bitched about it or not..??
Food is also expensive here.. unless you wanna eat a pizza slice everyday .. at your friendly neighbourhood pizza joint.. for 2 bucks.. meaning about 6 malaysian ringgit..! And if you donch know.. the pizza slices.. are sometimes so old.. it tastes like cardboard..!
So for those who are thinking of migrating.. unless you have a great job.. and all.. it’s just too expensive.. coz’ taxes would kill you too.. if not .. the weather..! Ok.. i’m talking about the small town i’m in..!
