Diesel Fuel Prices, UFA Rip Off!

[catmando]

Went to UFA west end yesterDay , filled up, looked at the receipt, just a touch over 2,00 a litre. Everywhere else , 185 , .Was choked, !

Yeah I haven't had cheaper fuel from there since I got a membership .

 

[NoBrakes!]

hmm, how does that work? Do they buy under contract and sell until a volume has been dispensed at a contract price?

Get use to it gents, there is a big diesel shortage in North America and prices will remain high well into 2023. In the USA they have approx. 24 days supply left in there reserves and three refineries are down. The people in the east will pay much higher than the us in the west.

Isn't diesel a by product of making Gasoline? If so how come there is no gasoline shortage?

Because it's a manufactured shortage. Just like every other shortage in the last couple years.

Try the dyed pump next time, it's a better price.

It’s better than the 3.07/L for diesel In NB, and they have a refinery there.

Yup , got a buddy who is going too get me one of his cards, dyed diesel I’m told is around 140 . Fingers crossed. Don’t they make diesel in Redwater at that plant?????

Not necessarily, at my facility we make diesel but not gasoline. I dont know how it works at other facilities.

Distillation... on purpose or not what we have a refining capability shortage in Canada... always have, always will.

No one has said anything about not being able to get diesel out on the rigs.
There have been way worse shortages in the past, this one is made up by the media imo

Won't let me access dyed . Need to have John Deere status i guess ........

 

[Captjacksparrow]

Yup, UFA has got me a few times. Plus, the price at the top of the receipt doesn't have GST on yet, where the pump price does.

UFA changes daily. I get their daily rates just because of that. Right now, diesel is more at UFA than filling it up at the regular pumps. Gas, is cheaper.
I couldn't believe how their prices change so drastically.

I also do not get the fuel mileage using UFA diesel. Seems my truck regens more.

Is that with both their brands of diesel. I see some fellas like that Dieselex as it seems to burn a lot cleaner some say. just curious.

Yes has always been that way Ron. Need to prove you are a farmer to get access to the marked fuel pumps. I think commercial fishermen get the break as well.

I tried their premium once, it seemed similar as the major chains, but I got hosed on the price compared to the esso across the street in whitecourt. I have not bought fuel from UFA since.
