Tell this calculator roughly what you buy at the grocery store and it will tell you how much more you're spending thanks to inflation.

Apparently I'm spending 29% more than I did in January 2017.

Gas tax (before HST) ranges 25.10-48.05 ¢/L

Out the window I see 182.9 ¢/L.

Without HST that's 159.08 ¢/L.

Fuel tax is 32.20, leaving 126.88 ¢/L.

All together, that's 30.6% tax, 69.4% operating and profit.

The 'fun' part is, the more gas prices go up, the less percentage goes to tax.
