BP petrol discount rip-off.
If you are an AA member you can get a 10c/L discount at BP stations, usually on Wednesdays and sometimes Saturdays. Yesterday, I went and filled up at BP Fitzherbert Ave. The advertised price was 214.9c/L, which I thought was a bit high, but came down to 204.9 with the discount. My wife went to BP Pioneer and filled up, the advertised price was 209.9c/L, down to 199.9c/L with the discount!
I decided to check prices today, knowing that you can usually get a 6c/L discount at most stations;
BP Pioneer 209.9 (203.90). BP Fitzherbert 210.0 (204.9).
Mobile Pioneer 209.9
New World Pioneer 207.9 (201.9)
Challenge West End 207.9 (201.9)
I know it is common for prices to go up on certain occasions, but to use an AA promotion for its members is ripping them off!
I don't think I will bother with future discounts unless they can be shown as genuine.
