The average price of regular unleaded petrol (ULP) is set to increase by around 31 cents per litre (cpl) to 138.1 cpl tomorrow, so FuelWatch is encouraging Perth drivers, if they can, to fill up today to save money.
FuelWatch advises that on Wednesday 30 December 2020, most branded retailers are hiking their ULP price: 7-Eleven, Caltex/Ampol, BP, Caltex Woolworths and Coles Express hiking by between 41-43 cpl up to 147.9 cpl; Puma up to 147.7 cpl; and Vibe up to 146.7 cpl.
Perth's weekly petrol price cycle results in prices, on average, being cheapest on Monday and Tuesday and at their most expensive on Wednesday and Thursday - that's why FuelWatch recommends filling up today.
If you need to fill up tomorrow, use FuelWatch as there are still over 30 sites selling below 105 cpl. The difference between the highest and lowest priced sites is 47 cpl, which means you can save up to $28 on a 60 litre tank of fuel.
Tuesday's cheapest ULP is available for:
- 103.7 cpl at 7-Eleven Midland, 7-Eleven Midvale and Puma Bellevue in the East;
- 102.7 cpl at Costco Perth Airport (membership required) and 102.8 cpl at Liberty Calista in the South; and
- 103.5 cpl at 7-Eleven Landsdale, 7-Eleven Wangara, 7-Eleven Wanneroo and 7-Eleven Wanneroo South in the North.
