SPC 95 vs SPC 92

Oh man..... my mistake.... should have checked out the difference in price earlier. Anyway, my point is that I just pumped petrol last night and decided to have a go at SPC 95. To my enormous surprise.... I was charged $51.05 before discount. This makes me recall that my latest pump of SPC 92 charged me at $50.00 exactly before discount. So I went ahead and compared the 2 receipts and as expected, I pumped 32.63 litres of SPC 92 and 32.61 litres of SPC 95 respectively! Meaning a pure difference of $1 or 2% for the 2 grades of petrol....

I furthered my pursuit and realised that SPC 92 cost $1.532 per litre and SPC 95 cost $1.564 per litre. Hmmm.... 2 % difference in price..... wonder whether distance travelled would give a better return than 2%.... Anyway, also checked that SPC 98 cost $1.637 per litre. Will stick to pumping SPC 95 for the next few tanks or more..... To see if there is any difference in fuel consumption as well as feel and control.

Note: I have diligently saved $6 worth of petrol in pumping SPC 92 over SPC 95 over the last 6 tanks.
