    4c off per L when fuel is regular unleaded is headed towards $2 is like 2% off is hardly a bargain IMO.

    You save more if you fly a chopper.

    Or use Wish Gift Cards which give 3-4% off.

      This post is all about discounts of 1% and 2% (in the comments).

      IMO 4c off per L is better than 0c off per L, particularly when the fuel price is high.

      • gamemaster on 16/02/2022 - 17:06
        +2

        That's assuming the fuel is the same price as the competitors before the discount is applied. Otherwise you are going to the trouble of using a discount but not saving anything.

          for me this is perfect since the united right around the corner is consistently the cheapest in my area

    • soob on 17/02/2022 - 08:31
      +3

      This attitude is what sees so many people far poorer than they should be and why the 1% own 99% of the wealth. 4c x 70L = 2.80 x 52 = $145 per year so in 7 years is a $1000 saving. Since United are also typically the cheapest for fuel then you can probably double that saving. I see fools all the time filling up at servos that are 5c+ more expensive than others around them, because hey it's only 5c right? Wrong. The reason it irrits me is those gumbies drive the price up for everyone.

      • Ronniieeee on 17/02/2022 - 09:50

        Or worse, they think they're getting a great deal getting a 4c docket discount at Colworths and their associated petrol stations, when the servo just down the road (quite often a United indeed) is consistently selling at more than 4c cheaper than the undiscounted price.

      • gamemaster on 17/02/2022 - 13:20
        +1

        I’d imagine most people don’t fill 70L on average of fuel per week unless if it’s part of your job, you live in a regional area, or your car is fuel inefficient.

        You can save further by changing your driving style. Lift and coast, slow acceleration, minimising AC at low speeds and winding up the windows above ~80km/h to reduce drag, removing extra weight from the car including your own weight and not filling your car to full, increase your tire pressures slightly, etc etc.

        I’m sure the above will save you more than 2% in fuel costs. Which add up to thousands in several years. So if you genuinely are interested in reducing running costs then there are other considerations. People get fooled into thinking 4c off a L has a massive impact when in reality money can also be saved elsewhere.

          All good tips.
          Of course, nothing to stop us from doing those things and using a voucher for a further 4c/L saving.

        The “chopper” is a reference to some OzBargainers spoofing their smartphone’s location so that the 7-Eleven app thinks they are located near a 7-Eleven fuel station selling dirt-cheap fuel.

        Once their smartphone’s location is spoofed, you can “lock in” that dirt-cheap price and purchase fuel at that price at any 7-Eleven in Australia within the next seven days.

        • silverrat23 on 16/02/2022 - 18:21
          +5

          To add to it, "Get to da Choppa!" is a line said by Arnold Schwarzenegger's character in Predator and is used here, as flying a chopper to a precise location is similar to spoofing GPS coordinates on a phone.

    I’ve added this to the fuel discounts page.

    My guess is that this offer cannot be redeemed in conjunction with the 6c/L RACT or AANT offers, so if you’re an RACT or AANT member visiting eligible locations (in TAS or NT, respectively), you’re better off using those existing offers.

    Also, not all United fuel stations across Australia accept fuel discount cards. You should check the fuel station location finder to see whether your local United accepts these cards.

    • Chazzozz on 17/02/2022 - 07:43
      +1

      Hmm…I didn’t realise that discounted United gift cards were available, I’ll have to see if I can stack with my RACT membership at the local United. It’s often just as cheap to visit a 24-hour TAS Petroleum site instead, but you can’t grab a hot pie and a cold drink at the same time. :-D

      • WookieMonster on 17/02/2022 - 08:26

        I thought Tas Petroleum sites were usually the cheapest, but I did a quick look in Launceston and Hobart:

        • Tas Petroleum in Invermay is actually currently 4c/L more expensive than the local United station (and that’s before you consider the discount card in this deal or the 6c/L RACT discount).

        • Tas Petroleum in Cambridge is 2c/L more expensive than the unmanned Caltex in Cambridge, or the Caltex in Howrah, but it is only 6c/L more expensive than United stations in Bellerive, Howrah or Sorell. However, it appears that the United in Howrah is still offering a 12c/L discount for RACT members filling up between 6pm and 6am, so in that case, you’re better off going to United in Howrah…

        • Chazzozz on 17/02/2022 - 18:05
          +1

          Thanks for the information. I agree the sometimes United works out cheaper, and with discounted gift cards that would make it even better. TAS Petroleum is convenient to me so it's good to have choices.

    • SydneySwan on 17/02/2022 - 11:16

      My nearest participating United fuel station is in Dee Why which is only 16.5kms away from my home in Wollstonecraft. I thought there would be more locations.

      • WookieMonster on 17/02/2022 - 11:35
        +1

        I guess it depends on where you live.

        • There are only three United locations within a 50km radius of me, and they’re not competitively priced when compared with the EG / Caltex Woolworths fuel station I regularly visit.

        • However, they have a sizeable footprint in Tasmania. IIRC, they acquired some Mobil sites about 15 years ago and have been steadily growing their presence ever since. I guess it helps United that RACT chose them about five years ago as its exclusive fuel discount partner.

        • Coops1 on 19/02/2022 - 04:30
          +1

          So many variables (or non variables), but shopping around does work:
          - Tasmania’s relatively static petrol prices (no cycles)
          - distance between suburbia fuel and the discounts out east.
          - Ampol/Caltex Gift Cards, United GC, Wish GC
          - Amex offers, BP / Caltex
          - filling 2 cars up fully, eg 100l, to maximise discounts
          - the RACT ongoing 6c United offer, Woolworths ongoing 6c offer
          - stacked discounts on car sales Coles Express code
          - flybuys offers (rare now)
          - in store spends for extra cents off (Coles Express 10c), Woolworths (4c)
          - BP Qantas offers (eg fill 2litres min fill up for 2000pts) etc
          - Hill St 10c offer

          The list would be even bigger than that.

      Well you obviously have no idea where the fuel comes from.

      Nearly all issues will relate to the actual service stations themselves. ie. old tanks, improper/non-existent draining and inspection, improper refilling procedures.

      • Tobyseus on 17/02/2022 - 11:16

        I've always avoided anything except the big fellas (Coles, 711 etc) but realised I don't really have a strong foundation for why I do - I suppose someone just said once that United had "poorer quality fuel" so I just ran with it.

        You reckon as long as the station itself is not dingy, I'll get just as much bang for buck for my petrol regardless of which brand name they slap on it?

        • Typical16-bitEnjoyer on 17/02/2022 - 17:23

          If you want the honest truth, it's just plain racism. A particular ethnicity is prominent from the top to the individual managers/franchisees and ground staff. Also because they did a massive buying spree way back, buying up independents.

        • Chocobros on 18/02/2022 - 20:21
          +1

          From personal experience it has little to do with the name on the station and more to do with the specific service station.

          Word of warning 7-Eleven nambour sells the worst fuel I have ever bought. Car ran shockingly after filling up there and had to try numerous fuel cleaners in that tank of fuel to get it to run half decently and a couple of tanks of fuel from other servos later it ran OK.

          As a side note they also try and refuse fuel locks.

      • Peck on 17/02/2022 - 11:35

        Or 'Fuel Extending' by the servo. Call me paranoid, but I don't risk it.

      • skdreams on 17/02/2022 - 19:09

        I agree with you on the second para and the responsibility of it does sit with United not just the operator. Most of the sites are leased not owned by operators and not maintained by United. The processes are non-existent and only enforced to harass/fine the operators.

        Look up the PieFace fiasco where United forced site operators/commission agents to buy stock and agents incurred massive losses.

        Its all there for you to look, if you choose to close your eyes, that's your own choice.

    With fuel prices they way they are, a 4c/L discount doesn’t hold the same value as it did a few years ago. I can save almost 10 times that just by shopping around my local area. Last week the big stations (Coles/Woolworths, BP etc) had it for $1.96, and the independents were still at $1.63.

    • GG57 on 17/02/2022 - 08:47

  • eddieboy2 on 17/02/2022 - 08:16

    Shopback gift cards for Ampol give 3% cashback. My local Ampol also accepts Woolies $0.04c off vouchers…..combine the two for a good saving!!! Also use petrolspy.com.au to find cheapest fuel prices in your area.

    • omblygombly on 17/02/2022 - 10:37

      Yeah, they used to be 6% cashback. That deal was supposed to finish in December. When I went to buy a few more in November,the cashback went back to 3%. Still better value when the price of petrol is over $1.34 a litre than the 4 cents a litre. At $1.84 it is 5.52 cents a litre.

  • huntabargain on 17/02/2022 - 09:22

    Regular price of petrol at Ampol, Shell, Woolies is not cheap, so even with these discounts, it is way more expensive than independent stations!

    • eddieboy2 on 17/02/2022 - 09:52

      Yes as a rule that is correct, but, using Petrolspy for my area in SA it has…….Ampol $161.7 and cheapest independent is Liberty $159.9. If you take $0.04c off the Ampol price its $157.7, obviously cheaper…….also using the 3% off Cashback Ampol gift card it becomes $1.53…….

      You could try to convert the QR code (which is a type of 2D barcode) into a 1D barcode using free online tools. That may work? Granted, that is only a workaround, and it doesn’t solve the actual problem (i.e. the fact that some United locations are not equipped with the ability to read 2D barcodes).

      Otherwise, you’ll have to reach out to United Petroleum’s head office to get it sorted out.
