Yeah, I tried to keep my gas bottled up again last night, but it has a way of getting free as I fall asleep.

A 9kg bottle if gas costs around 20 quid or 1400 pesos , if i fill up my gas bottles at a petrol station , i pay about half of that pruce 

But you do neee special refillable gas bottles and fittings , i use LPG

Hi Jack,

Our Petron brand Gasul (same size as the one you show, has gone up this month in our town from 700 pesos to now 930 pesos. Just one of many TRAIN tax cost increases passed on to consumers I think.

Everything seems to be going up where I am. Electric 12 pesos/kwh, was 9 pesos this time last year. Rice 48 pesos per kilo when buying a 50kg sack and tastes like shit. I was buying it for 45 pence in the UK (31 pesos) and much better quality, literally amazes me that rice can be cheaper in the UK than in the Philippines.

We finally stopped using those metal type tanks last year after another story in the news about them blowing up and the shrapnel killed an occupant of the house. 

We switched to https://www.ecgas.com.ph/

We have one in the house kitchen, one outside in the dirty kitchen. Initial setup was 5,200 pesos each for the deposit/valve/hose. Cost to swap for a refill is similar to the metal ones.
