pbishop Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hopefully these are of use to those of you in the process of moving, so here's #2 Petrol - I'm not sure about other states, but here in Victoria, the price of petrol fluctuates depending on the day of the week, so be sure to fill up on the cheap days. The 'weekly cycle' means that fuel prices may start at $1.59 per litre, and then gradually drop, day by day until 6 or 7 days later it may be $1.30. Its still a mystery to me how this cycle works. Sometimes its 6 days, some times longer. If its before a holiday period (xmas for examples), the price may stay high for 3 or 4 days, and then drop. It seems that all companies seem to synchronize the days when they change price. Coming from the UK, this is a difficult concept to grasp, but if you time it right, you can pay approx 15% less for your fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
