Ontario Gas Prices Are Set To Spike Tomorrow & This Spot Will Be The Cheapest

Driving in Ontario is becoming quite an expensive hobby as prices at the pumps continue to be a headache, and this week is no exception.

So if your gas tank is running low and you plan on putting some miles on the dash, you may want to fill up before Wednesday because prices are expected to rise.

Gas prices analyst Dan McTeague tweeted on Monday that Ontarians could expect "no change" at the pumps for Tuesday. However, this will reportedly be followed by a five-cents-per-litre increase across most of Ontario on Wednesday, bringing prices to 175.9 in the GTA.

McTeague says diesel will see an even steeper rise of eight cents per litre.

The cheapest spot in Ontario to fill up tomorrow is predicted to be Cornwall, with prices anticipated to hold steady with no increase from today's 165.6 cents per litre, followed by Kingston, which is set to remain at 170.9 cents per litre, according to McTeague's website Gas Wizard.

Peterborough, London and Windsor will also be decent spots to fill up, with prices expected at 174.9 cents per litre, just a cent below what prices in the GTA are expected to hit.

The most expensive areas to gas up in Ontario on Wednesday will be Thunder Bay and Sudbury, although neither city is expecting an increase from Tuesday's price, according to Gas Wizard.

Prices are set to stay at 192.9 cents per litre in Thunder Bay and 189.3 cents a litre in Sudbury, so you may want to avoid gassing up there right now if you're looking to save some money.
