FuelWatch – 12 February 2018

The average cost of unleaded petrol is set to increase by around 19 cents per litre (cpl) to 146.6 cpl tomorrow, so FuelWatch is encouraging Perth drivers to fill up today to save money.

FuelWatch advises that on Tuesday 13 February 2018, all Coles Express sites are increasing their ULP price to 151.9 cpl (an increase 22 cpl). Most 7-Eleven, Puma, BP, Caltex and Caltex Woolworths are increasing their ULP price to 149.9 cpl and most Vibe site are increasing their ULP price to 143.7 cpl.

Perth’s weekly petrol price cycle results in prices, on average, being cheapest on Sunday and Monday and at their most expensive on Tuesday and Wednesday – that’s why FuelWatch recommends filling up today.

If you need to fill up tomorrow, use FuelWatch as there are still 35 sites selling below 130 cpl. The difference between the highest and lowest priced sites is 27 cpl, which means you can save up to $16 on a 60 litre tank of fuel.

Monday’s cheapest ULP is available for:

  • 120.8 cpl at Puma Midvale in the East;

  • 120.8 cpl at Puma Warnbro in the South; and

  • 120.8 cpl at Puma First Avenue Mt Lawley in the North.
