Some petrol stations just 1.5km apart had a price difference of up to 34 cents last week, digital services minister Victor Dominello said.
This has sparked the government to urge drivers to check the FuelCheck app before hitting the road over the festive period.
”Cheaper petrol is in the palm of your hand, so please take advantage of it heading into the holidays,” Dominello said.
“Jumping on the app can really make an impact.”
“This time of year, many people hit the road to join family at Christmas celebrations and to holiday within the state. FuelCheck is free and can slash your petrol bill,” treasurer Matt Kean said.
