Line is fine, I fill up in the mornings and never wait. People whinge but I’ve never waited longer than 10 minutes in an afternoon.. Compared to Shell/BP in Fyshwick I save around $25-$30 per fill. For me, it makes it worth it. I’ve never had a single issue with their fuel.

Remember, Costco in Fyshwick is the sole reason our petrol in Canberra is no longer 20cents more than Sydney. Like it always was before they came to town. They used to blame the “freight” cost for the 20 cents.

We are all being rorted but since December I’ve saved $380 on fuel compared to filling up at the most expensive place within 5km of where I filled up at the time. I’ve kept a spreadsheet, might post it on here. $380 is two AU falcons, that’s 12 a year for filling up at the cheapest servo.
