no charge for plastic bags, i found that weird when i heard you have to. wasnt auckland paying 5c less for petrol than the rest of the country? or did they already fix that?

Yeh there has been a few instances where the petrol prices were a bit cheaper in different regions at different times(and not just auckland!) not sure what the difference is now since everyone whinged about it hehe

Lol, the servo down the road from my old house charged around 10 cents more per litre for petrol... it was less than 500 metres from the refinery :D
