U.S. Gas Prices vs. Canadian Gas Prices – Is Gas Cheaper in the U.S. than Canada?

Does it make sense to fill up on gas in the U.S. if you live near the U.S. border or are driving to the U.S. for a cross border shopping trip?

We've done some research and have found that when the Canadian dollar is around par with the U.S. dollar and the exchange rate is taken into account, buying gas in the U.S. can be 20% - 25% cheaper than buying gas in Canada, so it’s worth it to buy your gas in the U.S. if you live near the border or are driving to the U.S. for a cross border shopping trip.
