Ever wondered how you can shave off a few dollars when filling up at the petrol station? We did, and found all the real offers that you can take advantage of which doesn’t involve saving through reducing fuel usage.
In the calculation examples we’ve used below, it’s assumed we’re filling up 65L of normal Unleaded Petrol.
1. Save 12c per litre at Shell by discount stacking
This is by far the biggest discount and works as advertised by stacking 3 different promotions:
- 4c off from your your docket after spending over $30.00 worth of groceries from Coles
- 4c off from using a partner app such as CarSales.com.au or Linkt
- 10c off from spending an additional $20.00 in-store at Coles Express
- 💰$11.70 in savings but you spent an extra $8.30 from the additional $20.00 in-store to get it.
- 💰$5.20 in savings if only the 4c docket and 4c partner app is stacked. Assuming you fill up once a week, that’s a saving of $270.00 per year.
2. Save 4c per litre at Shell with CarSales.com.au
As mentioned in the promo stacking, this offer from CarSales.com.au requires you to download the app and enter your Car + Odometer.

💰$2.60 saved per tank, or $135.00 a year. There is a maximum limit of 150L too per transaction – if you’re filling up 150L, 4c off saves you a total of $6.00.
