Fill up today if you want to pay less for your petrol – that’s the advice from FuelWatch.

On Thursday, 31 July 2014, most Coles Express sites are increasing their ULP price by 11 cents per litre (cpl) up to 157.9 cpl. Most BP, Gull and Caltex Woolworths sites are increasing their ULP price up to 156.9 cpl, and most Caltex and Peak sites are increasing their price up to 155.9 cpl.

Tomorrow's metropolitan average price for ULP will be 154.7 cpl, however there will be 40 Perth sites selling below 147 cpl.

Given that Perth ULP prices follow a weekly cycle, with Thursday and Friday being the most expensive days, FuelWatch recommends filling up today and paying no more than 147.0 cpl.

• 140.8 cpl at Caltex Woolworths Midvale in the East;
• 140.8 cpl at Caltex Woolworths South Lake in the South; and
• 139.9 cpl at BP Connect Karrinyup in the North.

Thursday’s cheapest ULP will be available for:
