$36 Fill up, thats a first - Volvi - 02-06-2008
Had to fill up today couldnt wait till Wednesday. A mammoth $36 for 21.5 odd litres BP Ultimate @ $1.67
Not that long ago, ok maybe 2 yrs a full fill was about $18 for same fuel. and I dont think weve seen the end of this tunnel yet.

$35 bucks and a few cents tonight after running out of the go juice. Heidi and Dantheman rescued me. That was 100octane from Shell.
The world has gone crazy.

They do have a captured audience there Max but it is better for them to sell dear petrol than no petrol.

If you run out of fuel even $2 a litre would seem real cheap me-thinks every tried pushing up a hill

Very true Simmo
But the way fuel is going up, it is atrocious.
Filled up the van (diesel) and the Commodore the other day, $127 (and the Commodore is on gas!!!)

Paid $2 a litre at Three Ways near Tennant Creek, when she said $38 I told her she had confused me with a car and went back out to check. Nearly had a heart attack on the spot!

Because the roads are so crap at the moment with loose asphalt I take the ute and at 164.9c per litre, it costs me $117 to get to work and back each week. So keep it in perspective - I save the paint work on the bike and my skin... not my wallet!
