Just spent a few days up at Noosa, fuel prices are:

ULP 165.9
LPG 110.9
Dieso 166.9

What ever the excuse, it's bull shit.....

Simple:
1. Cartage costs
2. Holiday time
3. see 1 or 2 above .
4. If you get this far down the list we don't care, just pay up.

I have honestly stopped looking at prices now. I need fuel I go get it and pay the money. The gov has us over the barrel and it's never gonna change

We are paying £1.40 a litre over here. 1.5 exchange rate so 2.10 AUD for diesel.

Gone are the days when you chuck in a $20. Won't get you far.

I remember when we would scrape change together to give us a total of $5 in an old holden V8 Monaro and it was another day or so of cruising!!!

Too many people on this planet using petrol to make crap toys for drive through Mc donalds......

Dunno about cartage costs. I paid more ($1.60) in Sydney last week than I did at Pambula Beach ($1.49) more than 500km south and 24 hrs later......

At least you can get it there not like Moreton, saves carrying enough for a week.

Back to work for a lot this week, I wonder if the prices will start to drop as part of the Xmas theft rise!

That's a great price. It is at $1-57.9 all brands around my area.

I always check on motormouth before filling to compare
