What really surprises me is the other servos didn't start gouging the price!

smicky Go Pies!!! Donating Members 2,852 Member For: 17y 2m 18d Gender: Male Location: Vic Somewhere - Sometimes NSW Posted 07/03/08 11:29 PM Share Posted 07/03/08 11:29 PM As others have mentioned Shell is out of action.... I remember this happening a few years back when they have the premium juice branded as 'Optimax' took about 2 months to see anything again.... They said it was issues with the refinery but in fact I heard it was due to a lack of a certin component that was used in the mix... Typical...Caltex went down yes, but didnt really effect anything... Is Shell playing the same story/game again???BP iis on average about 2-3 cents higher then Caltex and Ampol on the 98 oct juice... While being recommended by FPV, not sure the three are any different... Heard a roomer again that there is some cross over with the 3 on the 98 oct flow!!!I got Shell discounts coming out my butt wish I could use them again!!!
