Money-Saving Tips

• Shop the cycle: Capital city petrol prices fluctuate in predictable cycles. Monitor your local trends and fill up when prices drop.
• Consider E10: If your vehicle is compatible, E10 is often noticeably cheaper than standard Unleaded 91 and can lower your weekly fuel bill.
• Use your mobile: Check real-time prices on your mobile device before you have travelled too far from home. Look for the green colour indicators on our app to quickly locate the best deals.
• Avoid highway centres: Major highway service centres often charge a premium. Detouring just a few hundred metres into a nearby suburb can yield significant savings.
