Qantas, Woolworths, BP, Ampol, EG Ampol

NRMA also recently allowed stacking their discounts with the EDR/Woolworths discount at participating Ampol Foodary outlets saving up to 9c p/l.
 
Its just too complicated for me!

Agree. I fill up 1-2 times a month, not enough to jump through hoops chasing $2-3 off a tank and a hundred points.

For simplicity I just use 7-11 price lock (which usually gets me close to the cheapest fuel nearby regardless of discounts) and collect whatever VFF I can

Use Petrolspy - there's often up to 50c/l variability in pricing around Melbourne. EG ampol is often the cheapest, but only some of them. Today I drove past 2 EG ampol, one had 91 at 1.59, the other was 2.09. shell and BP really aren't competitive so it's usually EG or metro or apco. The dollar savings make any points earn not worth chasing.
 
Use Petrolspy

The NSW gov developed the FuelCheck app for this.

A couple of 7-Elevens in Inner West Sydney have very competitive pricing, and my home is within range for Fuel Lock. The EG/Ampols near me are not usually not on the cheap end but I do occasionally visit when there's an Amex Offer

These are the cheapest options within about 8km of me for 98 (for comparison the top end of the market is 230c/L and that 171.9c/L is the cheapest in all of Sydney today...)
