Unleaded was 99.9c at Woolworths Robina yesterday. $103.9 if you didn't have a shopping voucher. Unfortunately that servo doesn't stock 98 ron for my F6 so I went to Nerang (about 4kms away) where it was 18 cents dearer for unleaded, so I ended up paying $132.9 for my Vortex 98.

I used to live in Wellington and my car went so good in winter out there. God damn you QLD'ers, i am a mere 250kms south of your border and pay 1.44 for 98 ron

yeah your spot on the mark there. Temps lately have not gone much over 15*C, and first thing in the morning she screams. Wellington is very similiar as you would know

Hows this for sus, Tuesday night at Richmond Shell I paid 1.15 the very next day it leaped to 1.28.
I don't know how much longer they can do this for, there's obviously a pattern here, when will the ACCC do something?

Wednesday morning is always the cheapest, it jumps Wednesday arvo and stays highover Thursday and starts coming down on friday. It happens that way every single week. For about the last 3 years anyway.

saw on sky news petrol should drop to between $1 $1.10 by christmas/ new year, their reasoning is that the middle east is now no longer in conflict and that no major hurricanes in the u.s yet. They also said something about the u.s finding new oil reserve holing over 15billion barrels, can only be a good thing

Local BP (Nambour) was at $1.10 for 91 ULP last night at 7pm, then when I got back from Brissy at about 11:30pm, it was $1.21, this morning it was $1.10 again.
Damn unstable Middle East
