If you’re driving, this is what you can expect at the pump stations come month-end:
We’re currently paying about R12.60 per litre of 95 petrol, R12.34 per litre of 93 octane and R12.14 per litre of diesel – depending on price variability at filling stations.
With the expected increase at month-end of petrol’s 48c and diesel’s 64c, you may very well be looking at new fuel prices of:
• Petrol 95 – R13.08 per litre
• Petrol 93 – R12.82 per litre
• Diesel – R12.78 per litre
If price hikes continue at this rate, we can anticipate a very tightly budgeted Christmas break; because as we all know, with these hikes come many other price hikes.
The Automobile Association expects that more pressure may be put on fuel prices before month end.
