It flucuates a lot. We pay per litre not gallon.

Currently, in Sydney, NSW, regular unleaded fuel (91 octane) seesaws between $1.15 per litre to $1.29 per litre. It usually seesaws that much within a week with highest prices Thursday to Sunday and comes down a bit on Monday, then lowest point on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Hi there, Brisbane (capital of Queensland) is swaying somewhere around the 112.5 - 129.5 p/l currently depending on the day of the week for ULP.

Here is a link that your husband may find useful which has the cheapest fuel prices around Aus: http://fuelprices.racq.com.au/fuelprices/

(Post code guide for capital city (central) of States around Aus so he can search easily: Sydney NSW Postcode = 2000; ACT (Canberra - capital city) = 2600, Melbourne Vic = 3000; Brisbane QLD = 4000; Perth - Western Australia = 6000; Adelaide - South Australia = 5000;Hobart - Tasmania = 7000; Darwin - Northern Territory = 0800)

Louise, some things here are more expensive! Depending of where you live, housing in Aus can be more than in many parts of the US and some parts of UK.

Definitely- I watch Location Location and am always amazed at how cheap houses are in the UK. The average price in our area is over 1 million AUD for a 3 bedroom terrace in the innerwest.

But obviously we'd love to have you here in Australia Louise!!
