Telstra Launch Petrol Price Guide

[will0612]

The big T have launched a guide to petrol prices on their 3 G and Next g portals. You have to go to the Travel & info link on the bigpond home page and the application is listed as MyFuel.
It lets you enter a suburb or postcode search and returns you the list stations and the current price at the pumps for each of them for each type of fuel.
Looks fairly comprehensive and I was able to buy at $1.11 near where I work instead of 1.17 close to home.
They are allowing people to access it for free too so the savings are savings.
My old man drives a Territory, takes 100lt or so to fill it so $6 a fill savings 3 or 4 times a month is not bad.
I thought I'd pass it along cause I don't see an ad for it anywhere.

Thanks for the info, by the way, the tank in a Territory is 75 litres, if
your old man is putting 100 in, he possibly has a fuel tank leak.
