I drove to work this morning with less than a quarter fuel tank. I tried not to fill my tank on Mondays and weekends because those are the days when the petrol prices are high. The price of petrol normally goes down on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
If I can get to work and back I'd be very happy. It's more than 30km drive to work and the indicator was quickly going down to 'e' and the hilly road was no help. E for empty...? well, I was hoping e for enough to get me home.
Anyway, I didn't want to take the risk of the car dieing on me in the middle of nowhere so I had to fill my fuel tank... didn't want to take the risk. That was an experience with my eyes concentrating more on the fuel indicator rather than the road.
When I first arrived, this question of 'why the price of petrol is not consistent'... I am still asking the same question.
They get expensive on weekends and holidays and usually cheaper on Tuesdays & Wednesdays. You can get long queues on Tuesday evenings and to make it worse some of the pumps are out of order. What the..? It seems like they reduce the price but they close some pumps to force you to wait the following day so that they can more out of you... So buy your petrol when it's cheaper.
News are circulating that the price of petrol will come down and I hope it will come down soon. And then I will consider to change my little car.
