BS, If you have a decent compression ratio, it's the same as petrol, just a quarter of the price.

And 10 litres per mile is still better milage than you get.:gotya:

Where the hell did you get that Bonne...???  was that a 16c per litre Coles or Woolworths deal??  I know the Woolworths Servo just west of the Wollongong hospital has had it at 49c a lot recently...was that it...??
  As far as using more. .its half the cost of gasoline to run my 300c on it.. LOVE it.. it's like 1955 all over again but with heated seats &  ........ AND.. you can still do burnouts while the wipers are working...! :drink:

Woolworths near the hospital. Over the counter is 45 cpl at the moment.  Just for this month, you get 8 cpl off, then if you spend $5, you get another 4 cpl off.  I needed milk, so I bought 4 ltrs for $5.

If you want to look at it another way, I paid 37 cpl for the gas and got 4 litres of milk for only $3.70.

You only get the discount up to 150 litres of fuel - exactly what my tank takes from empty.  The guy behind the counter said it's not really designed to give milk away for free for less than they actually charge, but I'm about the only person that buys that much fuel in one hit.:smile:
