Just filled up with Diesel at the local Woolworths Site, and paid
$1-06 per litre with the 4 cent discount, I was the only customer
with a smile on my face, ULP was a $1-18 with a 4 cent discount,
lets hope Diesel stays below Petrol prices as they should, I think
one can buy Diesel cheaper in Brisbane, but on the Gold Coast it's
still ok.

Hi Daza
Half your luck. Diesel here in Clare dropped 2 cents per litre the other day and is now $119.9 cents per litre. I wish it was that cheap here.

Great is'nt it? 1.08 to 1.09 in Brisy.
Just filled up at the local coles/shell for 0.89c a litre including discount of 20c / litre.
Liquorland had their occasional deal going, buy $30.00 or more of grog and get 20c a litre off.
6 bottles of cheap red later, drove up to the local shell and bought 150 litres. (took a couple of jerries)
They have a 150 litre limit like woolies.
I look at it as free wine for buying shell diesel.

And we were looking at $2.35 a litre last year in NT on a trip.

Lifes good.

Hi Daza

Good to see you are winning.

Not quite happened here in Melbournes east , we have a massive unleaded fuel price cycle and unleadeds about $1.30 today, diesel 116 but by wednesday night unleadeds down to 113 before discounts , maybe next week diesel will lock it in.

But its not looking like it as the big unexplained unleaded peak has washed thru the system as per graph link below.

Yes, I noticed last week that diesel was cheaper than ulp here in Perth, at one servo by 7c.
Sign of the times?

It is about Bl#@% time.
Still five cents dearer for diesel here at $1.24.9.
Then again it's not a big tank our local servo has, maybe the next load will be different. :))

Don't know what you guys are on about.....It's been like that in Mackay and the Whitsundays (Qld0 for at least several weeks.

I was shocked to arrive home and see that for some reason Diesel has been cheaper than unleaded....i'm not sure why that is up here?
