Albertans aren't feeling as gouged at the gas pumps.

At 12:01 a.m., the provincial government stopped collecting the 13-cent-per-litre gas tax. The move was announced last month as a way to help consumers with the rising price of gas.

The province estimates the removal of the gas tax will translate to a savings of about $6.80 per tank for a 50-litre compact car, $7.21 for a small SUV, $12.65 for a mid-size SUV, $18.50 for a large pickup and $185.50 per tank for a semi-trailer.

But as Jill Croteau reports, families across Alberta are struggling with rising costs elsewhere and wonder if the savings are sufficient.
