So what's with the price of petrol in Perth? Why is there a regular cycle of cheapest on a monday then a spike that gradually decreases to the next monday? Google it. The spike is 20 cents a litre. And this is legal?

Hi Plodnalong, You can usually find answers to questions such as you have asked by going to the "Fuelwatch" Web site. That may help. I guess we a least have the situation in WA where you know the price for the next day as the price at all sites is set and published on the Fuelwatch site at 2.30 pm every day for the next day and it is fixed for 24 hours. Hope you enjoy WA and travel safe.

Alwats pays to remember our esteemed leaders impose a maximum price a retailer can charge its good citizens.
If the retailers wish to charge a bit less one could think that would be very generous of them...cough,cough.
I am sure desiel is always close to the max they certainly dont drop it to often......

I'm in Mandurah, WA, and with the exception of one Woolies/Caltex which sometimes drops it diesel prices, all the other stay fixed at 136.9 as a minimum, even when unleaded sometimes goes down to 108.9.
I go to 7/11's as they are usually fixed at 125.9 for diesel (sometimes a few cents cheaper) and their fuels are supplied by Shell - the same as Coles Express and others.

The question is still valid.Why do the fuel outlets in Perth increase and decrease their fuel prices sometimes by up to 15cents ?

because they can and people still buy it, called market forces.

I guess in the busy world one just rolls up to the servo when empty.
Now us nomads are smarter than that .
