48.9 - 2c/L discount for me ... no change here.
I think it's unleaded rising though .... I don't diesel will be on the rise ... so it won't affect the farmers that much ... just the families travelling through the holidays.

Don't even bother looking at petrol prices anymore. We know they are going to be high and there's nothing you can do about it.
Probably would be about $1.50+ for me since I use BP Ultimate but also I have a 4cyl so if I don't flog it then it's all good

Strange here last week, regular ULP was 132.9 whereas Vortex 98 was 124.9. Queried it but it was apparently correct so for once I got to stick it up all the 4cyl owners! :hihi:
Corrected it now though, bloody easter, Vortex98 is 144.9 here  :  :

With the lag between Oil prices and pump prices we should be on a low now. It'll go up at Easter regardless. I expect it to stay high for a while after Easter with the increase in Oil prices due to "uncertainty" (panic) over Iran.
Show the b@stards by keeping a full tank when the price is low and only gettting small amounts you need when it is high. 119.9 here on the Far Nth Cost of NSW. avg around 115 on the Gold Coast this morning. Was up to 125 last weekend here - will be higher over Easter. |

_2: Filled up the Falcon with LPG a couple of days ago. Will see me through to the weekend where it'll be garaged and we'll then be using the Peugeot which received a full tank of diesel last night. Should be right for at least 2 weeks on that. :the_finge

I am more worried about the double points. If I do one thing wrong the 3 points turns into 6 and my license is GONE!
