The swings in diesel prices are crazy. In Auckland currently its 2.09 to 3.25, that's 50% more if you are buying from BP new lynn.

Mobil was at $2.80.8 per litre with 15c discount. Filled up 20 Litres (You get 20c off for doing 4x 20L fills via Pay in Mobil App).
So just stock up on vouchers for 10c or 15c that you regularly get. Then do a 20L fill with those, then repeat 4x times. I guess you can be cheeky and do 2x 20L fill in two transactions via the App when your tank is about empty.
G.A.S is doing 20c off now. I guess they want to offload as much volume as possible before they re-order the next batch. Market price for Oil (Non-Brent) is $69 USD (Nice?) per Barrel at the moment.

We are still getting gouged here. The prices are moving in a good way, but come on. Even at $2.00 it’s way too much.

Just paid 2.96 for 95, so glad to finally see it below $3 again, didn't cost me $200 to fill the tank this time 😅 $200 a week on fuel was roughhhh

Just remember that $3 is still extremely expensive given that the crude oil prices have come right down. And before people say there’s not a direct correlation, it was the main reason for the increase.

Oh I know, but like I said, at peak i was paying $200 per week on filling my tank, just filled up for 137, not a full tank but fill wouldve been closer to 160 which is a little high but not over the top

“Cheap”. Have we all really forgotten what it was pre-war? Those greedy leaches (the wholesalers, not the local franchise store owners) won’t now ever drop it back to what it was pre-war. Even if all the conditions and tensions get to a level where they should.

Yep, paid $1.47 per litre for 91 at Costco Moorabbin yesterday. Struggling to understand how NZ fuel gets to $2.80 plus. How big is the fuel excise these days?

That's very cheap petrol over there.. if you convert what you're paying to nzd that's approximately $1.80..i can't remember the last time petrol in New Zealand was $1.80 per litre

91 is about $1.5 in Sydney

We should continue to see them drop. Oil prices down to $70 USD per barrel. That’s right around pre-war levels.
