Everyday Rewards is coming 1 February 2024

We are launching a new loyalty programme early next year that will replace Onecard and we’re proud to announce bp as our foundation partner.

Sounds like without BP and Contdown, AA SmartFuel aren't able to continue.

Wait for Wednesday to put gas in at BP. Put in $120 in $40 increments, gets you 30c per litre off. When you hit over 60c per litre, next time fill your tank.

I have had my cost per litre reduced by almost a whole dollar which definitely offsets any slightly higher prices when filling.

Shit feels bleak to talk about. I remember when gas was under $1.

This effort is offset by paying more for your initial 3 at full price.

If petrol is $3 per litre and the discount is 10c per litre, you pay $4 more total across your 3 fills of $40 each, then save $12 on your second fill, a total saving of $8 extra across two fills.

Honestly it seems there must be other ways to cut costs that are more effective but if every dollar counts then it helps a little.

Just cut 5km/h off your average/typical speed.

Quickest, easiest way to get better fuel efficiency.

Accelerate more gently too.

More power to you for getting one over the oil companies, but I can't be bothered doing all that. I just want to fill up the car every few weeks and pay a reasonable price.

How long ago was that? I remember complaining when it went over $1.20 when I was a newish driver.

I was about .. 15 maybe? Before I started driving. Early 2000s I guess.

That is far more effort than I'm willing to go to, to purchase fuel.
