try mo sa Shell Sct. Borromeo (between Timog and Q.Ave). AFAIK, hindi sa Shaw/Boni stations ang cheapest along Edsa

Price levels in different trade areas change a lot. What may be cheap now might raise prices in a few weeks. Likewise, price drops can come at the blink of an eye as well.

We try to milk as much from customers if we can, but every once in a while, one station initiates a price war and everyone follows suit within a few hours/days. Then when we get sick of it we try to raise prices again so we can go back to milking motorists again.

Longest price-wars I've seen are in the Alabang area and Kalayaan/Kamias area. Ilang taon nang mababa ang presyo diyan.

Are you 100% sure about that? Because our stations are calibrated on a weekly basis and have very low margins for error. I could even show you how it's done if you're interested.

Baka sa mga independent yan.

talaga? i gas up at shell bf almanza when i have the chance, kasi mas mura pa nitro+ dun kesa sa fuelsave sa sucat.

i did notice that my worst FC figures are from full tanks sa shell bf almanza. consistent ang routes ko.

bro would you be able to confirm? my FC figures are consistently not good when filling up at las pinas.

i do have same routes, no changes in driving habits. i'm hoping na nagkakataon lang.

i have a 42L tank, nag slow blink na fuel indicator ko, meaning meron pa 8~9 litters...

nag pa full tank ako, loaded 37 litters... meaning 5 litters left nalang sa tank witch is impossible kase 5 litters and below will trigger the fast blink na of the fuel guage...

51.10/L ngayon... cost me P1900

last time i full thank is 51.something din and it cost me 1800 lang...

btw i only gas up morning when its still cold since night shift ako... so rule out na ang hot less dense fuel...

or nag kataon lang... no real proof kase di naman exactly natin ma messure ang gas sa tank...

btw: im getting 15 KM/L on 2NZ-FE MT sa shell ron 91 pure city driving, no A/C kase night shift ako

san gas station ka bro? IIRC there was this one time sa shell almanza 36 liters kinarga sa 42L tank ko, wala pang low gas warning yung auto ha.

usually pag nag popup na low gas light ko mga 32-33 karga ko automatic FT.
