Perth petrol prices: Fill up for as little as 90c a litre tomorrow [Mon]

PERTH petrol prices have dropped below $1 a litre for the first time since October — and bargain hunters can fill up for as little as 90¢ a litre tomorrow.

The budget savings at the bowser are likely to continue, experts say, as international wholesale petrol prices nudge downwards and Perth petrol stations wage a price war.

Fuel Watch data shows Perth’s cheapest unleaded petrol hit a low of 97.9¢ a litre this week — the first time it has gone below $1 a litre in nine months, when it bottomed out at 90.1¢ a litre.

With discount coupons and shopping dockets that can offer as much as 8¢ a litre off, savvy commuters can fill up for less than 90¢ a litre tomorrow, with Monday the cheapest day of the week at many stations.

But the weekly price cycle means big differences in cost depending on the day you fill up, with the average unleaded fuel price for July $1.19 a litre and the highest price almost $1.36 a litre.
