That was at Ginger's in North Swan. 47.9 today. Fuel pricing is
deliberately designed to be confusing. I travel 55 km to work. I pass
three servos, all on the other side of the road.

You obviously haven't been introduced to the local bogan chicks at the
pub...

Well, maybe they aren't *supposed* to, but they do. ;-)

Three servos, all on my side of the road. But none of them are BP, and
it seems so silly not to use the company-issued BP card. I do a 500
metre detour when I need fuel.

Theo - I'm in Perth WA and I get the 4 cent a litre discount on vehicle LPG
from my local Caltex Woolworths servo at Hillarys and also from United (if
I have an IGA supermarket receipt). I only know of one Caltex Woolworths
servo that DOESN'T give the 4 cents discount on LPG as well as petrol.
Whereabouts are you?

But how did the original guy (Moike) only pay $0.40 /litre for fuel? Where
the heck did he buy that LPG from?
