When there were 16c and 20c or more discount dockets available if yo made a $200 in one go shop, we would make an effort to spend the extra to stock up on items. The trip to the servo require a team effort, at least 2 of the fleet were fueled up on the discount price and the $5 min spent at the shop to get the extra 4C per ltr. This became a ritual including 3 x 2ltr milk. When the fuel purchase was close to the 150ltr max mark, the extra 4 cents discount paid for the milk, so in effect, the milk purchase was free. 2 x 2ltr milk and a paper actually paid us 60cents for doing it
Now the discount is only 4c ltr there is no real point in filling 2 of the vehicles at a time, the 6 ltrs of milk is now paid for by the 4c plus 4c for the spend in the shop, so still worth doing. There is alway a snag in every plan though, yesterday we both bought fuel without knowing the other needed to buy fuel, we now have 13 ltrs of milk in the fridge
