Further Info/Tips

There are two "tricks" that can be extremely beneficial as there is a common trend experienced by 7-Eleven App users: 1) If you receive an error processing your credit/debit card, you can purchase a 7-Eleven Gift Card in-store and apply the credits instantly onto the App. 2) You do not need to use the funds on your App to pay for the fuel, you can lock-in the price and pay via Cash or Card at the checkout saving the hassle of constantly topping up, gift cards, etc.

Master131 spends a lot of time creating and maintaining the script at Project Zero Three that we all know and love.

      Going to piggyback on this and ask when does everybody think 98 will drop back down?

      Trend seems to be downwards and I've got two weeks until next fill.

        Let me check my crystal ball and I'll get back to you.

        • +1

          Was only looking for opinions, of course I don't think anybody knows for sure. I've only been using the 7-11 app for a month and a half so I'm not quite in tune with their cycles yet.

          • @OZBMate8911: just have a read through of the thread..I think that's why you got negged

            Most people want to be spoon fed info

            • @[Deactivated]: I have, and fair enough with the negs. Didn't put enough info in the original post.

              It seems most use the ACCC price cycle stats to determine when is the best time to buy. However, as far as I can see it's very skewed due to the Australia Day long weekend price pump. Despite the ACCC saying now is the best time to buy, 98 prices has jumped 8c over the week (12c if you count the short period it was 117.9)

              • @OZBMate8911: It'll probably be a bit screwy the first half of the year, with School hold/Easter/Anzac over the last 3 weeks of April, plus NSw election at the end of March and Federal one in most likely end if May (or evem early June). May also have some impact.

          • @OZBMate8911:

            I don't think anybody knows for sure

            There's your answer.

    U95 - 112.9
    Hampton Park, VIC 3976

    • Nice… Time to fill the Jerry Cans!

  • The servo guy questioned me about my Hampton Park lock in price (he definitely knew what was going on) so i told him I did a trip down to New south wales during the week (:

    • +1

      I don't show them the price, I scroll down so they only see the bar code on the screen. Works a treat.

    • +2

      Most the 711s i go to the operators are like "wow thats a good lock bro, should have brought jerry cans". Then if they ask where I got it, I say I got it in Sydney. (since i live an hour away from Sydney theyre like yeah seems legit).

    • +4

      Except Hampton Park is in VIC, not NSW.

      • The barcode doesn't show where you locked from

  • Melbourne servos are starting to bump their prices up for 91 above 140, so if using Coles/Woolies vouchers (plus flybuys or wish cards), better fill up.

    • +1

      TGP is rising 0.2-0.5c per day..
      Doesn't really justify a 20c increase >=\
      Greedy servos

      • Coles was still 115.9, Caltex at 143.9, so nearly 30c!

        • +1

          Other way round here..
          Coles at 140.9c here
          Caltex still 117.4c :|

          Hopefully this means people will start filling up all the 112.9s and the 7/11 fuel gods will answer our prayers with a fun P98 price!

  • +2

    Hampton Park (VIC) has increased it's 95 1.129 -> 1.559

    • +1

      Damn it! I was planning to lock this morning but have been busy all day :(

      • Just filled up one car and as I was going to lock in for the other it changed :((

        • If you're quick, Fairfield East, Vic has 98 for $1.109

  • +31

    U98 - 110.9 Fairfield East Vic

    • Thanks. Better be quick. Won't last very long

      • yup

    • wow perfect timing :-)

    • +1

      You are absolutely amazing! Thanks :)

      • +1

        165.5 at my local 7 eleven. Massive saving thanks

    • +4

      Thanks for the post, now to watch the people post it on the front page to try to get upvotes I guess

      • Already posted
        Shame it wasnt by the same poster assuming they were the first to find it

        • +1

          It never is. Someone posts it here and then a 2nd person posts it to the main deals page.

  • I've just locked in the 98, if I go fill up now, can I lock it in again? Is there a limit to how often I can lock? Or is it as long as I dont have one, I can get another?

    • +3

      Limit of 2 fuel locks per 24 hours

  • +2

    Dunno if anything like this has been posted before, but I've been tracking my savings in a Google Sheet. Figured I'd post here so they can take a copy of it helps anyone.

    It calculates the locked price and discount based on what appears on the receipt.

      This will be of great use to any potential stalkers of yours out there.

  • I'm just curious - what prompted the price of P98 to match or even go lower than P91 sometimes? Don't tell me it's due to the servo was out of P91 and had to sell P98 at P91 price, because recently, my local 7Eleven was out of E10 and P91 and only stocked P98 but they were still selling the P98 at their original retail price. I would think that there's no way the store be able to provide you with P98 at cheaper price because they would be losing money.

    • That's what happens apparently.
      Your local 7Eleven must be funny then.

    Damn app won’t let me top up, and I’m running the latest version of the app on an iPhone XS Max that has never been jailbroken or anything. (Error Code: Harry) Anyone know what this means, couldn’t find any mention of it in the thread? Then I tried three different 7-Eleven stores for a gift card, and they were clueless as how to process a gift card sale. It seems like they are really making it hard for me to give them money!

    The last time I successfully purchased a gift card in store, the attendant was pushing buttons for what felt like five minutes, before they eventually got it to work. Does anyone know what their POS process is to explain how to add funds to a gift card?

    • you probably have a CCV that starts with 0?

    • -1

      Does anyone know what their POS process is to explain how to add funds to a gift card?

      So that you can teach the attendant on the spot?

  • Does anyone know the reason why I can't add a credit card to my account? wanted to lock in current fuel but won't have a chance to go to 7 11 until after work.

    • Didn't work for me with either account and not with nox either. I'm suspicious.

      • Same happened to me once…waited 6 hours and it started working again. Was right after the 1.7 update if that helps at all.

    • I ended up going to a 7/11 and got a giftcard and locked in the 98 for 110.9 :D

      But yeh, a bit worrying about the error.

      • Guess what, Just tried added my card to the account. It's letting me do it now……

        • +1

          dont use 7/11 credit. just pay by card.

  • +7

    So within the last 30 days there has been 1906 API requests as of now on https://fuel.ethergroup.com.au

    500 of those were within the last 12 hours.

    • +3

      I don't use it personally (prefer the modified APK) but you're providing a great service. Kudos.

      • Going to get negged to oblivion.. because some selfish people believe any publicity will destroy our secret.

        Actual truth: only OzBargainers are bothered to save $10-$15 every week per car.

        • +2

          That's $500+ a year. Almost pays for rego. And I have the convenience of filling up wherever whenever and I can ignore the pump price.

          Also many people have multiple cars

          • +4

            @Levathian: You'd be surprised at the amount of people who claim they can't be bothered..

            • +1

              @cwongtech: Yup. Deals where you save 50c/L are pretty rare but I do think it's a great app.

              I did try to explain it to my family but they can't be bothered checking the site haha

              • @Levathian: Same here. I told my workmate, even I send voucher screenshot. She is scared.

              • @Levathian: I've considered setting up a script for myself that checks a certain few servos every 3 hours or so that constantly runs out of fuel or has cheap fuel and if the price is less than a value (say < $1.15 for 98) it locks in the price for me.

                I'm honestly surprised more people haven't done stuff with the script/program I released, at least not publicly since all of the code to lock in and check a fuel price is in it.

          • +3

            @Levathian: Since most people are at tax marginal rate of 32.5% plus 2% medicare levy, it actually saves you a taxable income of $750+.

            In Australia, saving effect is magnified as the tax rate is high.

          • +1

            @Levathian: +1 for convenience. Previously had to factor in location for independents or woolies vouchers and time the cycle. Now it's streamlined to just scan at any 7-11 at any day of the week. Plus enjoy my free coffee every month 👍

      • Regarding the modified apk method…do I use that in combination with a fake GPS app? What are the preferred apps for this?

        • +2

          Yes. All it does is remove the mock location check and (probably) remove the check to see if your phone is rooted.

          So you either need 2 different apps installed or use the above link to reduce the hassle of searching/finding a GPS coordinate with your fake GPS app and then locking in. The above link will automatically lock in the cheapest fuel it can and the maximum litres your account allows.

          • @Freighter: oh okay awesome…think i prefer the simplicity of the website then.

            Does the website do this with api's or something? Is the source code open, wouldn't mind having a look? All good if its not, just thought I'd ask.

            • @IdBuyThat4aDollar: Yep. Pretty much it just emulates the app. It's completely open-source, so you can happily modify it to do something else you prefer (like automatically login when you load the website etc).

          • @Freighter: Can I have a link to this apk please?

    • +16

      I'm glad it's being used. It feels rewarding lol.

      • +5

        Freighter for Prime Minister.

        You have saved me more money than our Government.

        • +1

          Ha! When I released the first modified APK on here one member who seems to be bloody active on OzBargain wanted to send me the savings their mum made on her first fuel purchase, it felt like a weird suggestion to get money for such a simple modification to an app.

  • +3

    @Freighter made some changes, i also downsized the VM it was running on as it was going to hit the $200+/ month Azure credit i have and start costing me.
    So It's been downgraded to a $13/m VM which is costing me nothing, just don't need to worry about it starting to cost anything.

    Please let us know if any issues are occurring for you.

    • +3

      Dynamic duo! We solved the problem we had and it should be running smoothly again. Full steam ahead - choochoo!

  • just had a weird issue with my workmate who I showed the website method too a while back.

    She has successfully locked in previously for a few weeks, but today when she tried to lock in ULP at 110.9 the website gave an error of can't lock in as the price is higher than the cheapest price found at postcode 3042 (or words to that effect).

    So we tried doing a manual lock, by putting in that postcode and it successfully locked, but at a price of 142.9!!!! Which is heaps higher than even our actual local price. So weird.

    • Niddrie just went up, so might've been an error related to that?

      • yea, just reading a few comments above it seems that VIC is on a dramatic upward move at the moment, so it is very possible.

    • Same thing happened to me. Looks like the issue occurs where the price has changed but Project Zero Three hasn't yet updated.

      • That's what happens. Because the price script only updates every 3-4 hours it isn't always showing the correct cheapest price (like what happened in the post above). Perhaps I should add a confirmation page for the manual search after it starts the lock in procedure but I'm not sure yet how it should or would look, and we had other ideas to implement first.

        • +5

          It actually is set to update every 1-2 hours. It's currently down because I'm making tweaks which include 2nd and 3rd best prices.

          • @master131: That's a great idea. I'm not an IT person but is there a way to display if the cheapest price is trending downwards or upwards? Or at least the previous movement is up or down?

            Dont worry if it's a hard thing to figure out. Thanks for your mastery :)

          • @master131: Love the updates! Thanks. Especially the trend graph.

  • Quite rare when I don't have to lock in a interstate price!

  • +2

    Ive got a U95 @ 114.9 for 45 litres, expires tomorrow 12pm, if anyone wants it, first in first serve.

    • Can I have please

    • noob question….but how do you transfer vouchers?

      • +1

        Take a screenshot of your locked price voucher and send it to someone else.
