Yeah, I read in one of my trade magazines that the average gross
margin (retail price less wholesale cost) is 18 cents, costs of
running the station are 14 cents, and net profit 4 cents. The markup
is higher in Canada, 8 cents a litre on average, which is 30 cents a
gallon but with our currently weak dollar that's really the
equivalent of 22.5 cents. But expenses are higher (e.g. $12.50
minimum wage) so the bottom line is about the same.

The real money is certainly on the inside sales which is why you
hardly ever see a standalone service station any more without an
adjoining C-store.

Now, enough fooling around, time for some real tacos ...
