Still around 150.7-150.9 cents per litre for PULP at the cheaper outlets in Sydney.

The “crisis” will be when it suddenly leaps up!

Seems many of you have scum/rip-off servo owners. Prices in Canberra haven't moved more than 4 cents for months.

I got it for 1.30 for E10 yesterday afternoon Denistone on the way home .... other places are still around the $1.45 mark or a bit more.

It goes up and down all the time .... but has been slowly on the increase when it comes to averages.

LPG has been the bigger jump in average price of late.

BP 98 $2.54 at one of the local stations here in NZ.
Gull 98 ethanol blend is cheaper at @2.19 and my cars seem to run fine on it.
Last few months have been spending $700 plus a month of 98 alone.
You guys got cheap fuel over there.

117cpl for U98/V98 before discounts. 90.9cpl discounted 91 ron fuel in Perth. I haven't seen prices this low since the mid 2000's.

Problem is you cant drive anywhere with the current movement restrictions.

What you mean to say is we got it cheaper than you in NZ, not cheap!
We get mostly ripped off but over there for you unfortunately is outright extortion

If this quarantine period lasts much longer we will see fuel at prices last seen before this forum was created. $1.05 seems to be common for 91 RON.

$1.132 for 98 at local 711 in Brisbane to my place.. Makes me wish i had a drop tank and could drive further than the shops / golf course.

$2.54 in NZ, they stick'n to ya tickman..

You just wonder what will happen after all this over, the gauging being done by the oil companies to get their money back, while people can't drive as far/often as they would.

It's still about 10c overpriced according to the experts. Oil companies still ripping us off, but what's new.

Around here 98 varies from $1.19c to $1.41c

But our local BP has specials each night after 7:30pm with 98 at $1.10

Paid $1.37 for 98 the other day so quite a discount to what I am used too. Using a lot less too since there is a noticeable reduction in traffic these days.

I've noticed that I'm getting more red lights from the cross roads due to not having the usual volume of traffic to keep the main roads green
