Be strategic about the days you fill up at the pump. “For gas, Mondays and Tuesdays tend to be the cheapest days to fill up your tank as demand is lower at the beginning of the week,” Anderson said.
Drivers filling up at Costco will generally save more than £6.50 a tank compared to a supermarket. RAC fuel spokesman Simon Williams said: “Drivers who aren't fortunate enough to be members of Costco will no doubt be horrified to see just how cheaply fuel can be sold.
4. Fill up on a Tuesday or Wednesday. Most retailers run on a petrol price cycle. These cycles usually last four to six weeks in major cities, and prices move from a low point to a high point.
Since the roads are typically busy on the weekends, prices may raise on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. If you want to capitalize on low prices, try filling up early in the week, such as Mondays or Tuesdays.
Based on historical pricing data, the ACCC says the magic day of the week is Wednesday for buying cheaper petrol in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
