Kemps Creek BP

ULP 117.9c/L No discount
98 was 154.9c/L ... such a massive difference (about $24 a fill)

Now i know ppls arguements that PULP this that much more economical .... but on a $/L scale ... it's not that economical.

LPG is still down around the 54.9c/L with 2c discount.

make the most of it

South Island NZ is currently running at $1.97NZ for 91 and $2.05NZ for 95.
This is the first time in 8 months that 91 has dipped below the $2NZ mark.
Can't wait to get my girl across the ditch and save on filling her up!

for those hunting the cheapest prices, this site is usually pretty good, although keep an eye on the time the price was updated as it can change pretty quickly..

Got $1.29 for 91 at the AMPOL at Chermside on thursday, definitely the cheapest I've seen it, a big drop from the previous week too, I think I paid $1.45 at the Shell in Aspley the previous week.

QLD has had higher prices for ages.. it use to be the cheaper state.. but I think now even regos are higher than anywhere else as well..
$800+ for a 6 cyl vehicle.. Imnot really excite about what the rego will cost for the 8cyl..
when I moved up here it was basically the same amount in hundreds as your cyls on the car.. 4cyl= $400 etc etc

124.5 for unleaded at the Chermside AMPOL today, lowest I've seen out of all the stations I pass on my trip to work. Hopefully it stays this low for when I actually need to buy it!
