The only thing I've found here is useless, I used to have the app on my desktop but it didn't include Caltex and many times was incorrect so chocolate teapot comes to mind. WA isn't completely useless is it?

At least I used to have a vague idea. I had to pay $1.48 the other day with the docket, not happy. It's up and down like a whores drawers at the moment.
Around our area, at the moment anyway, the price is lowest Thursday afternoon and often stays low till Sunday afternoon. However this past weekend, prices were a bit weird.

Many people complained about all the other days being more expensive, and the petrol companies were investigated about it, so, as I expected at the time, they changed it. Now hardly anyone gets it and those who didn't buy on Tuesdays, and complained, are now happy that we all pay a higher price

If they actually thought that every day would come down to the low price, as some were saying, they really got that wrong.

I remember thinking 'I don't think this is going to work as people think it will' and lo and behold, no one has a flaming clue when it's cheaper than any other day
