Love these bastards. Wish it was an ongoing series. Hilarious shit on the planet.
You drove from Western Sydney just to save a bit on fuel?
Wouldn't the money saved be just chewed up on the fuel used to get there?
Average saving 30c per L
If you fill 60L, you save $18so his time is pretty worthless then.
Exactly
I drive a hatchback so petrol price alone back and forth would be just under $10 for me at $9.76, I think I wasted more petrol driving peak hour in standstill parramatta road compared to right now
$10 wasted money to help save fellow bargainers (maybe) thousands is worth the trip. 😃
91 is 186 via chopper, I'm thinking of locking in, but the oil price has fallen back down to $108/barrel, when it touched around $130/barrel recently… still a lot higher than a month ago though.
anyone know what the rough conversion is from wti oil price to our pump price?
I'd be surprised if it drops any time soon given the war
There isn't a direct one. It depends on
1) Singapore price (since most comes from there)
2) This bizarre pricing cycle that Australia hasYou can check the Terminal Gate Price for each city to see what wholesale pricing is doing (it's jumped ~18c since Monday). There's also the $aud (which has increased) most oil pricing you hear about is in $usd/barrel for WTC (West Texas Crude oil) and Brent Crude (North Sea off Scotland),

Here's a bit of an explanation & some indications.on where prices might be heading for us.
https://www.aip.com.au/pricing/international-prices/internat…Yes. There are multiple different pricing determinants to help defend price gouging
Old fable Scotland full off Oil. Spoken over a Beer with a Scotsman whose son was a oil rigger.
For a long time they used to say $100 a barrel meant $1 per litre at the pump but clearly that's no longer true, although I think the $AUD was much stronger at the time.
Better get ya 2L decor jug
My nearest gas station has $2.20c/L U91 Fuel is that ridiculous.
It actually rose since Monday in most places, last week was about $1.73
Yea it's insane. There's a 98 with $2.40 nearby me
Anyone want in on a group purchase directly from Russia?
1000ths in a tanker we just need to find some refining capacity here down under and we'll be set lol
LNP would be the first to jump on cheap fossil fuels.
Cheap fossil fuel doesn’t mean buying from Russia. We’re on ozbargain, we jump on cheap stuff. Integrity and loyalty. Rather than a sell out for the popular vote.
"You must be labor". You must be a dick.
Still better than labor
Ok calm down keyboard justice warrior, do you honestly think what I said is more than just a commentary on how stupidly addicted we are on petroleum? That somehow we're actually going to buy crude oil from Russia when Exxon mobile, B- oopsie daisy another oil spill-P and even "oh I'm sorry I didn't know we're not suppose to buy from Russia, here I'll put it back" Shell have refused to?
Are you doing your part to save Ukraine by blaming Labor voters?
Can’t wait to see the profits from the oil companies come year end
Booming bigger than Kharkov.
Errrr not profits otherwise they'd have to pay tax.
I wanna go there now but don't want to disappoint ! ! ! anyone for youtube live stream maddness update?
I drove here from Western Sydney after seeing it on
Fortune favours the brave or foolish.
What if they price went back to normal by the time you reached the petrol station?
Fill and run.
Could have but when I saw it it said uploaded 11 mins ago 🤷 risky lol
It's no longer on petrol spy?
I've just updated it, hope it's gonna get bombarded … let's see the madness :D
So someone may have reported that the price has expired and you went ahead to report the old price again to make people waste their time and fuel driving there needlessly? Bravo.
the price is no more in petrolspy, chill the ** up buddy no one is driving anymore.
no one is driving anymore.
If you say so.
Your fake price prank on Petrol Spy to waste people's time is sO fUnNy.
@Lucille Bluth: they might have run out of 91… hence they might have taken it out. the price is not fake why would the OP post the receipt of the price was fake???
Can anyone confirm the current price?
Well, on NSW fuel check it's still there, that's the official one, should be more accurate than petrolspy…can always call them if really desperate…dunno if they'll answer though. 🤷🏻♂️
They did answer, but refused to say!
Wow, why though? So weird.
@John Kimble: Very few petrol stations will agree to give the current price over the phone. It's a hangover from before price maps online became a thing. Rivals used to ring each other to price match/beat, and obviously that's something no one in the industry wanted.
These days it's kept 'a thing' just so the cashier isn't tied up doing something they're not paid to do. Management won't even care if you just hang up on people if they ask.
Source: I work in a petrol station.
Side note; you wouldn't believe the amount of people who call service stations up asking the dumbest questions. I've had 4 calls just this year asking if we sell regular 91 unleaded…
@BradH13: Out of interest, why is asking if you sell regular 91 unleaded a dumb question? In NSW, around a quarter of petrol stations don't sell U91. This can be very frustrating when you have a very old car that doesn't take E10.
@peterpeterpumpkin: That might be why people ask then. I'm in SA and I have never seen a service station that doesn't sell regular 91 so it always made no sense to me. Doesn't make it any less annoying though.
@peterpeterpumpkin: Can't you just put 95 in it instead? Should be better anyway from what I understand.
@BradH13: 4 a year. You’ll survive.
I suppose what I’m getting at - everyone has to deal with shit they aren’t really paid to do (or outside job description) and it always will interrupt workflow which is annoying but inevitable in every job.
I’m sure there’s much more other BS you need to deal with apart from the 4 a year phone calls but nonetheless neg away.@diazepam: 4 this year so far so 2 and a bit months, but you're right. I'm complaining about nothing in the grand scheme.
But Christ, phone calls while I'm working any job rattle my chain.
Bless the fellow ozbargainer who locked for me. I parked two cars back to back and filled up in one go at 175. What is the world coming to
Waiting for the next 7 eleven chopper deal
Wow, that price is crazy compared to how commodity prices are rising due to the war in Ukraine. I think $100 per barrel or gallon of oil equates to roughly $1.50 per capita if you rake in rising net GDP. Twist it back to current petrol and diesel conversion prices and you'll see a hefty inflation. Worst comes to worse I'll stick with this or lowest fuelcheck pricing at the rate it is going, but as everyone has said $/l has risen since last week.
Was just there at 23:00 (13 minutes ago) and was still $1.49/litre. Wasn't too busy as well, I got in straight away with people after me waiting only for a couple of minutes.
When do prices change over in syd? Midnight?
I thought they change it whenever they feel like it? 🤷🏻♂️
Just had one change on me now in Smithfield 183.9 to 203.9 :(
Often I see most changes happen around lunch
U91 still 1.49 at 11.25pm
Servo name checks out.
Can someone please explain the reference to "chopper". I don't get it. Cheers
Thank you OP. I was planning to fill up in the morning anyway so this saved me $28 for 70L. Price still valid as of 12.10am.
U91 149.9
P95 241.9Biggest price differential ever. The U91 must be close to expiry
I doubt there's a service station in this country that has near-stale 91 hanging in their tanks…
Price is now 189.9, expired
Still beats Vic prices near me, $2.35+
Where are you seeing $2.35 in VIC? According to Petrol Spy the most expensive U91 is $2.21 and at very few locations and 2 near Mt Bulla at $2.26
Still cheaper than the alternatives in my area.
Heck, my low fuel light was on and I braved the 10km drive to fill up there.
Get the barrels
