Petrol prices

It must be a sign that we're getting used to prices here, since it's very frustrating when either of the cars are running low for petrol and we have to fill up during the peak days of the week! Prices at the pumps across Sydney fluctuate daily, with the cheapest prices appearing Monday-Wednesday, and a bigger increase at the end of the week and over the weekend.

This means that there are often queues at the petrol stations at the start of the week, and we have to remember to plan ahead to anticipate whether the cars will make it past the weekend or not with the current tank of petrol. If we miss this slot and have to fill up at the peak times, it feels like we're losing significant money...

...but the stupid thing is that a 'high' price here is edging over 120 cents per litre - so about 50p in UK money!
