The price of petrol has been going up since we're been here (July 2007) and we've found that some petrol stations seem to put up their prices on a Thursday or Monday and then lower them again but that may be because we're in a more rural area.

Some supermarkets offer you 4c off a litre if you spend a certain amount. If you are using this you must make sure that you go the petrol station that honours that offer since certain stations are with certain supermarkets.

I have a 2 litre car and it costs about $58 to fill it up with unleaded.

The last time I checked it was about $1.39 locally for unleaded with diesel being more expensive at about $1.53 a litre. (Locally meaning Mount Gambier in South East South Australia).

We don't use the car as much here so it's not so much of an issue for us.

Regards,
Karen
