I was running a bit low to risk an airport run yesterday so I put in $15 worth at a 7/11 doing 1.84/L, I think. It was a very short stop... but it'll get me through another week at least.

The fuel light's not on yet so I don't count it as urgent... I don't need to go anywhere much so I can probably manage another week on a few fumes but it is definitely not something I can put off too much longer.

I'm trying to hang on until prices are below $1.75 before doing a full tank... the cheap BP on Heidelberg Rd is at $1.79, can't be long now.

Do you have an RACV card by chance?

I have a lovely gold one, why?

You can scan it and get 5 cents off petrol at an EG Ampol.

I often combine it with fuel voucher discount from Woolies if I get a big enough shop.
