On Sunrise this morning, they suggested people buy fuel today as it is at the bottom of the weekly price cycle and the lowest fuel has been in around 3 months.
Well, I went past the station on the way to work and the price was still 151.9 c/l for unleaded. A few kms (around 25) down the road at Roesdale, they had it for 147.9 (I think, but definitely less than Sale, and same chain). So was wondering what others are paying at the moment? Craig H

Been dropping all week from high $1.40s. Saw it for $1.34 today. Mate of mine that works at BP reckons its meant to drop to mid $1.20s for a little while. I hope he's right.

All around $1.50 and above in Perth tomorrow. It was $1.38 around the place yesterday. A nice big hike on the way. LPG still hasn't dropped back to where it should be (if it's really linked to the Saudi Aramco price as we were led to believe in January)

ULP - $1.55cpl PULP - $1.65cpl LPG - $1.02cpl Diesal - $1.59 Surprised by prices in Katherine - usually they are between 5c to 10c / litre cheaper than Darwin and to get it there it has to be shipped through Darwin. |

My jaw dropped when I drove past the BP's on the princess freeway Geelong side and saw $1.35 for 91. Have not seen it that cheap in a few months.

Canberra seems to be hovering around 1.47-1.50 for E10 and about 1.58-1.60 for 98.
Goulburn is normally about 10 cents cheaper. Apparently driving another 90k's up the road increases the cost of the fuel. Wouldn't have anything to do with all the government jobs here... |

E10 .... picked it up for $1.28.9
It's been getting cheaper and cheap in Sydney at the moment. I keep an eye on the NRMA Fuelwatch lately. And have been getting LPG for 58.9c/L lately as well .... it's good to be under 60c/L as well.

Filled a tank at 1.20 in Burwood - no idea what the PULP price was, I end up just getting ****ed off when I see 25c tacked on the top so I just stopped looking.

I normally pay around $1.55 for Ultimate at West Beach BP, most I've paid is $1.70.
On another note I have notice LPG down in the last 2 weeks from about 86c down to 67c.

Cant remember the last time I looked at the pump price. I need it, I buy it. If I was worried I wouldn't own a car that needs PULP.
