        I got a "ohh that's smart" she was a solid 9 too. Great all round experience

  • Tried around 50 times..no luck. Mock location error. Phone is a xiaomi note 3 pro.

  • Hmm, following the procedure is clearly illegal insofar as it's a breach of contract but then the company doesn't really seem to care much for the law anyway. Too bad too sad?

    • following the procedure is clearly illegal

      But… we all went to Wattanobbi!

    Jailbroke spare iPhone. Installed location faker. Placed pin in Bacchus Marsh VIC. Installed 7-Eleven Fuel App. Bought E10 94 RON fuel for 112.8 cents per litre. Winning!

    • You live in vic?
      Has anyone locked fuel prices from interstate??

      • +1

        No, I live in Qld :)

  • I cant get it to work, been trying since yesterday. Tried arrow back out to close, app manager to force stop, uninstall, reinstall, off, on, 1.0.4 apk, two different fakegps's mentioned in these pages.

    Looks like Im destinged to be sadder than normal at the pump knowing some of you bastards are getting cheap fuel.

    Let it be known, I hate you all. :)

      Try this.
      Set mock location settings to use FAKE gps app.
      Set your phone location settings by long pressing the gps icon which will take you to gps settings to high accuracy i.e (gps/wifi/mobile networks)
      open fake gps & search for location - "wyong" or any.
      click on start.
      get on the home screen by pressing middle button.
      open google maps > click on the gps icon(a small dot) so that it recognizes your fake location as your current location and shows you're at "wyong".
      get on the home screen by pressing middle button
      open 7 eleven fuel app > click on "find my best local price" IT will say mock location settings enabled couldn't proceed.
      get on the home screen by pressing middle button
      clear everything from ram i.e kill all apps.(also make sure in notification bar the fake gps app icon is not shown i.e its stopped completely)
      Now open the fuel app. and click on find my best local price. IT will say couldn't find any location. Try again and it will work!!
      This should work if mock location settings are working on your phone.

      Tested on S6 unrooted with fake gps app from app store.

      • Thanks for that, but it keeps showing me error due to mock locations, If I kill mock locations, it knows where I am.

        I get Google maps to show me at Wyong. But where you said "open 7 eleven fuel app > click on "find my best local price" IT will say mock location settings enabled couldn't proceed" I just get a mock locations error. So I kill the apps, and a heap of others too, but 7 11 still wants me to disable mock locations.

        Using an old rooted s3… 4.4.4

    • Flick me an inbox i can lock it in for u. You could anyways try on your mrs or mates phone too

    • I am on the same boat unfortunately, tried a lot but no luck :(

    I can't even log in to the fuel app. Just hands, even tho credentials are 100%.

    Anyone else?

    Just me?

    Fueled up for U98 131.9 and thought it was a good deal.
    Port Melbourne U98 is 124.9!

      Fueled up for U98@ 126.9 from "my trip @ wattanobbi" :(
      Damn 2 cents!

      Guess I better "drive to port melbourne"
      Thanks for the find dude!

      EDIT: They changed it to 138.9 for U98 now :(
      Looks like they updated their prices D:

      • They had unleaded U91 the same price as U98.
        It has been corrected, Port Melb U98 is 138.9 now.

        Did you lock it in?

        • No I didn't :'(
          Oh well.
          I snooze I lose.

    • Was that 7-11 or other brand? I just checked the 7-11 app and 98 fuel was over 140 around Port Melbourne?
      Also Watanobbi prices have gone up….look like they have caught on. Party is over kids :(

  • +2

    This is a bit of a strange one to post. You don't think they will catch wind of it considering you are posting it on a public forum? You are ruining it for yourself and everyone else who had the sense to not post it publically.

    • All in the name of sharing exciting 7/11s with other ozb members to have road trips to :)

  • As i understand u need to pay first to lock. What if they found out do we risk loosing this

    • Worst case scenario: we gota just travel to the place to get cheap fuel
      Also you can just pay for market price fuel with your app without travelling to places

  • How to disable auto update

    • Its in play store's settings.

  • lol damnit I'm still struggling to get this working!

    • +1

      I struggled myself for a long time. I was removing the app, from the app drawer to properly close the app, however this did not work. What did work, was to go into Memory settings and Force stop both apps when required to. Now it reliably works. This was on a LG V10.

      • When I turn off mock locations, it says unable to find location. I keep trying and eventually it will search but it will then find my real location.

        Are you roughly following the steps posted here?

  • +2

    Try it with an app called Fake GPS JoyStick. It seems like the 7-11 app cannot detect the mock location enabled with this app.

    111.9 for ULP 91 in Midvale, WA today.

    • +2

      Nice. 116.9 is the best in NSW today. Hope this thread stays active with some best price updates :)

      • NSW is very easy to find the cheapest. WA you can easily find the cheapest in the cheapest (by average) region. I haven't found good fuel watch websites for the other states.

      • Yah its good 1.11 beats 1.36 local. Been doing this for a while. Save a lot of $$$$

  • I can't topup my 7-11 app it's showing an error now velocity limit reached to many requests. Error Lima

    I have done 3 fuel locks in the last 3 days

    • Happens all the time.

      • Do you just wait or? Do I just need another account now?

        • Try again. Could facebook them see what's up

        • Has something to do with doing to many card reloads

    Best way to check cheapest price for NSW and WA please see below, any one have similar for others states?

    WA: http://www.fuelwatch.wa.gov.au/fuelwatch/pages/home.jspx?rvn…
    NSW: https://fuelcheck.nsw.gov.au/app

  • Where is the cheapest E10 today?

  • 1 Glenwood Dr, THORNTON NSW 2322 is 112.7

    anything cheaper from other states?

    The NSW price app is the easiest to use

    • Was cheaper earlier in the day in WA, but looks like price cycle is on the way up over there now.

      • I checked the WA fuel price tool and i didnt see any 7/11 E10 there….

        • Oh it's a crap website. You need to go into advanced search and mess around with it.

  • +3

    114 is about the cheapest today. Available in Thornton NSW, Toowoomba Qld, Bacchus Marsh Vic.

    Almost not worth it for me. My local Woolworths is 124.9. Less 4c and less 5% is 114.9.

    • +1

      not bad, it used to be better because i would use ING to buy $99 gift cards to add to my account, those were the days

    • How are you checking VIC and QLD? I'm not seeing much on the RACV and RACQ sites. Fuelspy works but is time consuming to go around the whole australia.

      • These links which are the RAC sites.

      • VIC is easy, you can zoom out to see the whole metro area (there are no rural 7-Elevens) and find the greenest area.

        Queensland is hard. I just happened to search for Toowoomba which was cheap, there could be cheaper.

        • +1

          Thank you :)

    • Yes… but I think most people would use this for a slightly different purpose; 7-day price lock.

      For example, if you are NOT low on fuel, but have a suspicion that prices might go up over the next few days, then you could always "Lock" in the current price in case the price increases.

      • True. However, in Melbourne prices are going down at the moment. Also, you have to load credit on to the app to lock in the price. I don't like storing my money with 7-Eleven.

        I prefer to just find the cheapest price on the day I need to refuel or if a particular cheap price is available lock in only as many litres as I can fit in my tank on that day.

        • @sween64 , the max you would lock is say $100. With the best saving interest rate available, that is $3 interest per year of lost money by locking it in the 7eleven app.

          However, the money you can save by locking the price , say just before the start of new cycle far outweighs the lost interest.

          During every fill up, I have saved at least $3-$12. This also gives me lot of convenience as I can just fillup in the station that is on my route to work.

        • +2

          @ujwols: I have a home loan so the savings are slightly higher, like $4! Woo.

          It's more the principal of having credit with a store that I don't like. It's the same reason I don't have an eTag (road toll service) and only top up my Myki (public transport service) with the minimal amount. It also helps as I don't use these services very often.

          If you are just locking in the price before the 15c jump then I see the value, however I'm using the GPS hack to find the cheapest national price and so I'm not constrained by the cycles as they vary across the country.

        • How much?

        • @jdogg: 114.5 for U91

        • @Rod71:
          Oh ok thanks.. I just locked in 113.9 at toowoomba

        • @jdogg: for 91? App is showing 115.7

        • @Rod71:
          Oh yeah oops i meant E10

        • @bsmksg:How did you get it to list all prices from lowest to highest?

        • +1

          @jdogg: E10 needs to be at least 4c cheaper to be worth as it is about 3% less efficient in most cars. If it is only 2c cheaper than U91, better to get U91. Lots of forums to support this.

        • +2

          @billy_bob: After you do a search, look at the URL. It would end with "radius=4". change 4 to 200.
