I am a first-time gas heater owner, uses 9KG LPG gas.

Last time I paid R270 at a shell garage in Clubview to fill it up and I think this too expensive :( ...

I heard a friend saying she got a refill for R170 at some midrand place...

Any chance I can get a lower refill rate in Centurion. Help asbf!
 
Go to the gas company in Jakaranda Street. R174/9kg. You should lodge a complaint against the garage as the price is regulated and they may not charge such a price.

Was the R270 without a canister?

Hmm, where do you get this price in Cape Town?

Blueflame and the one hardware store in Boston likes to charge around R240-280 from what I remember last year.
 
Check out the gas company in Centurion (near Chamberlains) . Cheapest gas I could find in the area. Petrol stations always try to rip you off.

The maximum retail price of lpg is controlled.
A reseller may sell for less but not for more.
Click on the above link and proceed to page 3. This price Includes vat.
If the reseller is a signed dealer of one the more reputable gas suppliers like Afrox, BP and Easigas, he'll charge a deposit of R171 (R150 + vat) deposit for a cylinder.
"Rogue" dealers and Totalgaz resellers seem to charge what they like; be very wary of them as they also tend to underfill.
This can be easliy checked: The tare weight of the cylinder is stencilled on the cylinder. It's varies from about 12kg. to 16kg.s Add the content of 9kg. and put on a bathroom scale.
