minus-squareMapleFawn@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up5·12 days agoFor the non US-ians, so I can relate better, you pay $6 per gallon, a gallon is about 3.79 litres. Which is $1.58 per litre. $1 is 0.86€, which means 1.35€ per litre. It’s rough but I think it is not that terrible either. Ps: someone check my math I’m terrible at it.
