Navigating the ever-fluctuating landscape of fuel prices can be a daunting task for any driver, especially for those of us who remember when a full tank didn't cost an arm and a leg.
But fear not—we've got the scoop on where to find the cheapest petrol and diesel across Australia this week.
By keeping this information in your back pocket, you can drive smarter and save big, leaving more in your wallet for the finer things in life.
Before we dive into the specifics, let's talk strategy. It's always wise to shop around locally for the best fuel prices, as they can vary significantly even within the same suburb.
Additionally, consider using a fuel price lock application. These handy apps allow you to secure a good price when you spot it and fill up later, ensuring you always get the best deal possible.
Now, let's look at the numbers for the week of April 22 to April 28. Western Australia is leading the charge with the cheapest unleaded petrol and diesel prices, with Victoria hot on its heels for diesel.
Remember, these prices can change rapidly, so it's always best to check for the most current prices before you head out.
