There was a recent article in the papers and on the internet where the ACCC was claiming that Queensland motorists were being ripped off.
I wonder what the effect of that announcement has been on our Queensland Aussie Froggers.
I have been mainly observing the Diesel pump prices in Melbourne and country areas.
Shell earlier in the year was consistently trying to boost the price of Diesel and BP seemed to be the cheapest but I noticed that around Melbourne Shell have recently dropped Diesel pricing to what seemed a standard for Melbourne
on 29/09/2017 Shell Moorabbin was selling Diesel at 126.9 a litre and it cost me $63.02 to fill the Megane with 49.66 litres.
Later in mid October Shell Strathmerton was selling Diesel at 116.9 a litre and it cost me $42.57 to fill the tank with 36.40 litres.
At the same time I noticed they had ULP posted at 123.9 and 98 RON at 143.9 Diesel 116.9
I have seen ULP at Lower prices in Melbourne, but who buys ULP these days? They seem to use ULP as a come on price when it is much lower than the Diesel Price..
I later bought APCO Diesel at the same 116.9 price in Bendigo, but other brands were higher. and Melbourne seems stuck on the 126.9 or higher consistent pricing.
How does that compare for our Queensland drivers on the Forum ?, and has the ACCC announcement made any noticeable price difference?
