Fuel Watch

By Sarah Stokely on April 16, 2008 at 12:09 PM

Drivers will be able to get daily updates of where to buy the cheapest petrol under a nationwide Fuelwatch scheme which will start in December. It will be run by watchdog the ACCC. You’ll be able to get the updates via SMS, email or at the website. WA’s run a similar scheme for years, according to The Age article.

    Yeah, we’ve had it in WA for ages. I don’t know anybody who doesn’t use it. Very convenient, and often see a differnece of up to 5-10c/litre just in the service staions I regulary visit. Obviously I go to the cheapest on the day I need to get petrol!

    We’ve got LPG – any chance we will get the same service?

    I think this should be a promising development
