16 Nov 2011 Esso Petrol Price Decrease

[Aaronlkl]

RON95 @ $2.10 - 18% = $1.722 per L

now.. @ $2.08 - 17% = $1.7264 per L

 

Price fell by 2 cents a litre but at the end of the day consumers still gotta pay more! Power ah! Uniquely Singapore! No horse run!

[Eviltrap]

Actually. I'm not too sure. Normally when I pay, I'll give both my Smiles Card and the DBS Esso credit card for billing.

 

But I remember the lady holding the smiles card and said it is THAT card that was reduced in discount.

Nice calculation!

 

Like what Aaronlkl said, still gotta pay more!

Price maintain so high for so long, now then they reduce?

 

And also just reduce 2 cents only, how much they already increased over the past few times.

But then better than none.

I have been giving only my DBS Esso CC when paying the bill. Is it require to give both in order to enjoy the full discount?

 

Sorry abit blur as i just switched from Shell to Esso 2 months back.

No its not. The Esso card is also a Smiles card itself.

[159er]

Haha... Thats what i remembered.

 

Switching here and there is confusing myself.

That is how i always justify!

If I walk the same distance the water I need to drink is more expensive than the petrol the car need to drink lol..

Increase 4 cents, reduce 2 cents Thats how Singapore works!

 

That is how they define their baseline on petrol prices.

Did you see a trend?

A price reduction means they are going to up price very soon.

 

I noticed it, not sure if anyone else does.

Cartels reduce price say 2 cents, then 3-4 weeks later, increase price by 3-4 cents, while a price increase will last a long time (even when crude prices drop) before it dips.

I guess no need to give Smiles card as the DBS card comes with Smile account automatically. I use just speedpass which takes care of everything (smiles points and no need to "Q" up at the counter.

[Steptronic]

Just pumped 8000, and it is 2.19 $ before discount. 2.19$ is around for quite some time!
