Here in Maryborough I frequent the local woolworths/caltex servo. Even without the discount they are basically the cheapest in town and they happen to be easy to access and have effecient service. Price was $1.11 for ULP today when i filled up (without discount)

I live in the Alice. BP Ultimate was $1.55 a couple of days ago. Fuel paid for by boss certainly helps! :

Got ultimate 98 for $1.24 last nite.... regular was around $1.13.

suprisingly cheap considering weak AUD at the moment

And what do you base this theory upon?

Take a look at this website and it will tell you what are the global price trends for crude oil:

It is actually 25 to 30 cents a liter cheaper now than it was two months ago. And unless another hurricane hits the USA or the war in the middle east becomes worse I expect the price of crude oil to continue falling.

I have posted this link before:
