Petrol retailers across the nation are being accused of "unconscionable" behaviour by preying on people's anxieties

Off topic, but I love Aussie words for things. Servos.

They do indeed suck (fuel), but they also blow (pollution).

Just for perspective, the typical Topup of fuel for a small car is 30l.
40c/l times 30l is $12.

This means that if just don’t impulse buy a stale meat pie and a rancid iced coffee, next time I fill up with fuel, I will be fine.
