Is this normal? Every 7Eleven store has the same price for fuel. makes their fuel-lock mostly redundant.

Lock it anyway since price can change in a minute
They’ve definitely had a new strategy in fuel pricing and it’s ridiculous frankly. Not even competitive – shell is cheaper than them.
That may well be the whole point? The fuel lock has probably cost them shitloads
I walked past the one on Stanmore Rd this morning and it was showing 2.27/L, there or thereabouts. I noticed it as prices at that particular servo have been around the 2.50 mark for the past couple weeks, so I noticed that the excise savings seemed to have been passed on.
They have a new assortment of Japanese convenience items so worth checking out
I hope they have a tuna mayo 🍙
Drive to work this morning passing two 7/11’s 2.50 and 3.20 for diesel
This may make the fuel lock redundant if you plan to use it same day, but if you pick the right day to fuel lock so that you can use it when fuel is higher then it’s 100% worth it.
tbh isn’t it kind of ridiculous how much the price of fuel varies from location to location? Like I could understand differences between cities or urban/rural, but adjacent suburbs?
I filled up at 7 eleven yesterday but I shouldn’t have. It was the most expensive around, even with the 6 cent discount from Linkt.
its teh same with diesel 309.9
but you can get it for 288 at ampol on pennent hills rd, bettington rd
Menai was the cheapest 711 in all of NSW when this all started, but typically it is among the most expensive.
I’m guessing some stations stuck to their standard cost-plus pricing (i.e. Menai) while others were price gouging, and now 711 corporate has enforced a standard price across all stations.
Well, I locked in at 2.44 early this morning
The ACCC should ALWAYS look at petrol pricing!! Why can it vary by over 50 cents per litre from suburb to suburb??
Looks like they’re all down to 229.9 now
I moved here from another country and every station around the city would be in lockstep to the cent. Except Costco, it was usually 4 cents cheaper.
Across the board it looks like ACCC making sure prices dont increase with the temporary tax reduction seems to be working. Ampol, Coles, Shell and BP are as well almost fixed in price. Some a cent or two more but relatively fixed atm.
I usually go to 7-11 North Rocks, they normally price match with the cheap BP across the road. But since the crisis, that’s been out the window. 7-11 are franchised, I wondered if it was being enforced by the supplier.
The BP there is still a bit cheaper though 👍
MF’rs be colluding like the New Day co op.
Great price for diesel we are about 15c on top of that here.
