1487414 2022-07-16 22:25:00 In about 1972 I remember in Timaru paying 3 shillings (30 cents) per gallon! (about 6.6 cents/litre). Brucem (8688)
1487415 2022-07-16 22:54:00 According to Gaspy Hamilton prices range from $2.826 to $3.139, useful app on my smartphone

Think I fluked it with the timing buying my electric car just before petrol prices went mad again, power is costing me 0.27c a kwh incl GST or approx $5 per 100km
I didn't buy it expecting to save the planet or to save money or anything I just wanted an electric car.

1487416 2022-07-16 22:58:00 Depends. The cheapest 95 anywhere here is a 3rd-world Allied station on Petone foreshore that does about $3.08.

BP seems next cheapest around .25 and Shell, or whatever they're called now, is just ridiculous. Beyond me how those stations get any business. There's one in the Hutt that has 95 about $3.32, so I assume people that go there have a fuel card paid by an employer.

Can't go to Gull anymore since I need 95. None of them do it.

1487420 2022-07-17 03:31:00 What you people forget to mention is how much you got paid in those distant times, it might well work out to be cheaper now relative to your pay prefect (6291)

1487422 2022-07-17 07:05:00 I never know the price of petrol. I don't go far and work within a budget of $25 a fortnight. It's always a shock tho' if I have to travel to a couple of appointments a few kms away and realise how few litres my $25 buys. bellbird (6169)
