Letter to the Editor: Fuel fraud

DEAR News Of The Area,

LAST week I was driving through Grafton and noticed unleaded petrol was $1.68 per litre and I was in Port Macquarie on Sunday, and petrol was the same price as Grafton.

So how can anyone justify people in Coffs Harbour paying up to 15 cents more per litre.

It seems like our airfares, that anyone living in Coffs Harbour is expected to pay a premium to do so. Maybe one of the dozen or so petrol stations in our area might reconsider ripping us off.

Regards,
Trevor QUICK,
Bonville.
