I was cruzing along Marion Road today 10.30am (Australia Day) & I seen BP was 104.9 ULP pretty much the going rate atm & opposite Caltex/Woolworths 99.9 ULP I cant remember the last time Adelaide had ULP for under $1 & a Public Holiday to boot. My Mobile phone is in for warranty so I couldnt grab a photo. So I decided to cruz down there just now with my Camera & its still the same price 7.30pm.

I had a 10c off voucher from Coles and got fuel the other day for 95.9. Been a few years since I've done that.

Ok, thats it, I'm over cars now. I just realized that I got excited when I saw fuel for 99.9c/L. That is not healthy!

BBQ fuel is $0.51/lt. That's the cheapest I've seen it in years. Anyone feel like firing up the barby? It is Australia Day afterall

I drove pat a servo a couple of days ago with fuel at $1.05/lt and was impressed but I had to get to work so didn't have time to fill up. On the way home, I did need to fill up so I went to the same servo. $1.15/lt :( . I was pretty ****ed off about that

It just goes to show you how conditioned we are to prices now
$1 a litre used to be expensive, but now we think thats cheap!!!! Gas at around 50% of the price of petrol is a real rip off. It used to be around 33% |

Id publicly thank to the ACCC for threatening a name and shame on those who didn't align fuel prices to its real value and the Government and NRMA for backing up the ACCC and keeping pressure on the oil companies.

I was really impressed with how quick the Government jumped on the fact the prices jumped so massively high just before the public holiday (up here it was $1.20 something) but after the threats, the price is back to around the $1 mark at most servos I saw tonight.
