Good news for motorists as oil suffers biggest drop in three weeks

Economic jitters and surging supplies from the US to Russia hammered oil again, with crude suffering its biggest decline in more than three weeks.

They already predicted a R1.30 drop in the fuel price for Jan, might even be more after this.

That's the kind of changes we need.

I dont give a toss about the fuel price unless I start seeing the price of everything else coming down.

You're schit out of luck. Greed is strong. So I'll gladly take the fuel price drop.

This country's rip-off fuel price is not compatible with good news. There's no benefit to me at all. One month of lower prices is not good enough.

It's an extra R600+ in my wallet - I'll take it.

There was a decrease at the beginning of this month as well - IIRC.

Come Feb, it will increase again, and we will be crying

No because I like to live in the real world where I know the gvt will screw us, same as every year

as long as that drop in price filters down to the consumer.....

Won't happen.

Best you can hope for is that prices stop rising for a little while.
