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

On Thursday, 7 August 2014, most BP sites are increasing their ULP price by 12 cents per litre (cpl) up to 155.9 cpl; most Coles Express sites up to 154.9 cpl; most Caltex, Caltex Woolworths and Gull up to 153.9 cpl; and most Peak sites up to 152.9 cpl.

Tomorrow's metropolitan average price for ULP will be 152.5 cpl, however there will be over 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 144.1 cpl.

• 138.9 cpl at BP 2go Bellevue in the East;
• 138.9 cpl at BP 2go Bentley in the South; and
