I was filling the defender the other week in my own little world and a lady on the other side of the pump scared the bejesus out of me by saying 'isn't petrol cheap today'........its the one thing I never worry about or keep tabs on it, when the trip meter gets into the 900's I pull into the next fuel station and fill her up.
I answered the lady by saying is it? She went on telling me which day is best to buy and how she tops up if she sees an out of cycle drop.....goodo I thought
Ditto.....Quote:

Apparently some city folk are getting cheaper fuel :o we sure arent...
But I just swipe the old Motorpass and drive off happy...
Fuel is, after all, the cheapest part of vehicle ownership...
Yes, Yes it is.Quote:

just a trip south from hervey bay to merimbula and the prices varied a fair bit with the average being $1.42 and the dearest was around coonabarabran $1.56 the lowest i saw was $1.32 for deisel lucky for me its a 2 tank trip so i wasnt ripped off at the expensive places :eek:
It's around the 1.55 mark in orange :(
Lucky for me mum does all the shopping at coles, and has started collecting all the discount vouchers :D :D
Hooray for 16c/L off! :clap2::burnrubber:
Agreed X2. If you do 15,000km per year and are getting 10L/100km (ie a diesel), a 10c/L saving in fuel is only worth $150 per year or 41c/day. If 12L/100km, $180pa or 50c/day. Why people wander around for 1 or 2 cents savings is beyond me, unless they are doing huge km per year.Quote:
