Eyema you should see it come down more soon as $1.25.9 yesturday was the going price at a few BP's & Mobil's here in Syd.
if you look back the price of petrol dropped fast but in the past two weeks petrol has not dropped its at rock bottom just b4 the mountain next week, but diesel has come down 25 cents in past two weeks and will stay more staple over Xmas petrol will go up when demand gets high at Xmas next week. just how business runs.

i was wrong! unlead has dropped to $0.88.9 in Sydney

Diesel is just a tad below 140 @ 139.7 here in the NT. Petrol is still above a dollar @ 115.7.

In the today's News they had petrol in asia @ USD 41.something a barrel.

Eye30, how do i find that m8? will they take aussie cent's?

that BP on silverwater Road has gone down to $1.19.9 diesel saw a lot of trucks in there too just a small outlet, but if they keep coming down in price we might get Dazz up for a tank full

Cheers

Dazzler · **Reply #70: January 08, 2009, 11:12:21**

I'd be thankful for a Tankful.

..

It's around 135.7 here in Devonport (one of the cheaper parts of Tassie) less a further 4c at Woolies and Coles outlets...

GURKHA17 · **Reply #71: January 09, 2009, 11:05:26**

hey dazz is that in united??? its 135.7 here as well in united.
I fill up in BP coz 'she' works there and get 6c discount. Its still 139.9 hasn't dropped yet, and my DTE is flashing already. I only have tomorrow left to see if the price drops so that I get fuel @ 129.9 instead of 133.9.

No m8 our United is closed for refurbishment.. it's Caltex (Woolies) and Shell (Coles)

I will be surprised if it drops much more as last I heard Oil was easing back up due to uncertainty in Middle East....

P.S. My car seems to like BP Diesel (could be my imagination but got a full tank of BP a couple of fills ago and she seemed a bit smoother and more responsive) Although you wouldn't think one tank would be enough to notice a difference when mixed with a few litres of the previously used caltex?

Any excuse to drive the price back up............

If they mean the Hamas v Israeli thing that's even worse.

My 2c, up in Newie it's low 1.30's with the odd very high priced places (140's and even 150's) Penrith/Richmond/Blue mountains area anywhere from 119.9 to 139.9!!!!! Very important to shop around.

what bout the other rumour? They are going to decrease the output to increase the price???

eye30 · **Reply #75: January 11, 2009, 12:53:59**

Noticed today that the price of unleaded has gone up 1p/l at local garage.

Lakes · **Reply #76: January 12, 2009, 07:08:11**

Diesel price unchanged here in Sydney unlead does not seem to have changed eather.

Lakes · **Reply #77: January 15, 2009, 18:58:34**

Well price gap closed up a lot in Syd yesturday, like i got diesel @ $1.20.9 ( filled up ready for a trip this arvo) unlead had jumped up to $1.10 to $1.16. but thats normal like diesel seems to be more stable in price, on thursday some servo's had petrol @ $0.49.9 and diesel @ $1.22.9 But i'd say prices are on the way up again soon

Duke750 · **Reply #78: January 15, 2009, 21:37:24**

Still $1.11 for diesel at Shell independent on Buderim. Still cheaper than Woolies and Coles discount

Treddy85au · **Reply #79: January 16, 2009, 12:35:51**

Yesterday I filled up and I got Diesel cheaper than Premium unleaded. I paid 115.9 and petrol was 117.9

GURKHA17 · **Reply #80: January 16, 2009, 19:58:31**

Funny thing happened....petrol price went up.

is 118.7
Diesel is still 135.7

I don't think you Aussie guys would like buying fuel in Blighty

eye30 · **Reply #82: January 16, 2009, 20:10:00**

Noticed prices are creeping up again.

2p today on diesel now 100.9p/l at BP

EymaTeapot · **Reply #83: January 18, 2009, 10:05:28**

Cheapest Diesel I have found in Canberra is $125.9 at Woolies Gungahlin. Unleaded $115.9.
That is the smallest price gap between the two I have seen in a while.
Glad I bought a Diesel

whitbomb07 · **Reply #84: January 18, 2009, 10:31:07**

I picked it up yesterday for 119.9 at a Mobil in Penrith.

Got 57.7lts in the tank aswell, I must have been on vapours.

Normally I buy caltex but the one i was going to get it from was 124.9 a few kms down the road.

There loss........

EymaTeapot · **Reply #85: January 18, 2009, 10:37:35**

Amazing how Diesel much you can squeeze into a 53L tank ah Dan.

I once managed to get 59l in. Must have been really low. I might have to start carrying a jerry can of Diesel in the boot.

whitbomb07 · **Reply #86: January 18, 2009, 11:28:19**

Yea to the point where sometimes I think the bowsers are a bit out of whack.

I do know that you can easily put more than the Hyundai quoted 53lts, but there have been times where the maths just doesn't add up right.

When I feel like being a mean B@#$%&*d I'll go into the servo and ask 'How many litres did I use?' Attendant replies with a figure above 53lts. 'So how did I fit that in when it's meant to be a 53 lt tank? Especially seeing as I didn't push it here?'

I've had baffled and on the odd occasion scared looks facing me, I just pay the amount due and walk out.......

I'm cruel aren't I? But it's interesting when they do have a scared and not a baffled look on their face........

Regards

Daniel

In UK pumps are checked regularly by Trading Standards as to liquid dispensed. There is a +- % tolerance and if outside this the pump is taken out of service.

Do you have similar checks in OZ?
