Last fill in brissy was under the $ for diesel at Costco.  Haven't paid over 105 for a fair while
i have no idea where a Costco place even is in Brisbane, there wouldn't be many I assume?

Local Metro here at Williamtown NSW, $1.02.9 / L for 138 Litres  ;D, and no shopper dockets etc.

Edit: I should have said, that was for diesel.

Yeah i know where North Lakes is, was pointing out that Brisbane actually stops this side of the Pine River Bridge, after that it's no longer "in Brisbane"  :cheers:
My local BP has dropped to $1.11.9 now, still a ways off the $1.06 of Gympie i saw on the weekend, and still seeing many places at $1.19.9 or even more here in Brisbane.

Well for me this is cheap.
1.36 Darwin / Katherine.
1.39 Kununurra.
1.48 Fitzroy crossing.
1.45 Roebuck ( Broome ).

And people in the eastern sides think there getting ripped.
Darwin and Katherine haven't changed for over month an a half.
But up in my neck of the woods, these are the cheapest.

To correct the Pedant it is in the Moreton Bay Regional council area, not Caboolture which hasn't existed since 2008 since the definition is LGA

so not Brisbane is what you're confirming...lol
I'll take your word on the naming of the area thing, when it comes to traversing that area I wind the windows up and lock the doors of the vehicle I'm in, and have the kids on the roofrack with rifles at the ready to pick of local bandits, just like being in an old stage coach.  ;D

 ;D  You want to be in Roper Bar.  ;D
If you don't want to pay their price, will they let you have any Fuel?

I think it will still be over $2.50 per Ltr. at William Creek too, no matter which Fuel you want.
If you want to keep travelling, you pay.  It's that simple.

In Alice Springs united has taken over one of the small servos near Heavy Tree Gap (on the way to Ross Hwy, where many of the caravan parks are) Unlike every other outlet in town (which have had Diesel at 1.38 for a few years, not much fluctuation) they are selling it at 1.14, and taking coles or woolies dockets. So anyone passing though it's worth making the trip. Not sure if the others will come down.

In Geelong at the moment we just had an independent servo open up. A lot of servos have matched their price of 89.9 per litre. Let the price war begin.
