Just sticking to little country servo's atm, rather pay more as all the big cheap ?supermarket? servos have to many people touching the pumps, doors and counters, especially the freeway service centres.

79.9 for E10 at Milperra independent.

As an aside, what's with the growing gap between E10 and regular ULP? Used to be 2-4c difference now it's 15-20 cpl at some places??

Change in taxes / excise??

Has toluene dropped in price recently??

When does the price become so low that buying Jerry cans and stockpiling will be cheaper in the long run when prices return to normal?

I bought a bunch of discounted Jerry cans from Repco just before this happened, some only $1 each, wish I got more now

You might want to re-word that post and make it more “theoretical”.

You’re probably breaching your home insurance if you have more than 20 litres on site. Not to mention the warped buggers who might see it suiting them to suggest you’re planning something nasty with all your stockpiled fuel...

Be careful using E10.....at least in my experience.

It ruined.my injectors twice in quick time. Once changes fuel.never had a problem.

May be a coincidence but i did near 200thou Ks in my BA-T. But again,. just my experience.

On Thursday night at our local servo.. 91 was $1.25
95 was $1.31 (i think) from memory four days on.

98 was $1. 39..

that's the cheapest by far I've seen 98 since we have access to it . Gave the AU a $50
top up drink of 98 . She normally only gets 95 . Usually 98 is anywhere between $1.49 and $1.55 here in my little woop woop.

On occasions it's over $1.60 though . It fluctuates a fair bit .Haven't got a clue what diesel is at present . Never bought any .
