The great fuel boycott

ACCC? A toothless dragon. Waste of space. Should be closed down as they are no use and have yet to demonstrate any benifit for the taxpayer's money.

Whats this I heard of a fuel Boycott , News to me .

I was in the unfortunate position of having to visit Melbourne this weekend & got dragged along to Costco Morabbin, I didn't realise Costco had its own petrol station , Ive never seen so many cars at a petrol station in my life, There were about 10 queues with at least 20 cars in each, 200 cars. and then lined up out the driveway and down the road. Im completely flabbergasted . Even if they were giving fuel away for free theres no way I'd wait more than 2 cars , never ever.

Not much, but I think there is principle there somewhere.

I worked out one day that spending extra in the servo to get 10 cents ended up costing me more than if I just stuck to 4 cents off.

It would, if you buy stuff you wont buy anyway. Items I get cost same at supermarket.

Seems the French can do a bit more than a boycott, just a shame there was a fatality and injuries
