The average price of regular unleaded petrol (ULP) is set to increase by around 18 cents per litre (cpl) to 111.4 cpl tomorrow, so FuelWatch is encouraging Perth drivers, if they can, to fill up today to save money.

FuelWatch advises that on Wednesday 8 April 2020, most branded retailers are hiking their ULP price: Caltex hiking by 34 cpl to 123.9 cpl; BP, Caltex Woolworths and 7-Eleven to 119.9 cpl; Vibe to 118.5 cpl; United to 117.7 cpl; and Puma up to 115.7 cpl. This follows a hike on Tuesday by Coles Express, tomorrow their ULP price will be up to 115.9 cpl.

If you need to fill up tomorrow, use FuelWatch as there are still over 55 sites selling below 88 cpl. The difference between the highest and lowest priced sites is 53 cpl, which means you can save up to $31 on a 60 litre tank of fuel.

• 84.9 cpl at Better Choice Bellevue and FastFuel 24/7 (Forrestfield) in the East;
• 86.9 cpl at NightOwl Shell Maddington in the South; and
