rach 1 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 How much is it where you are now? Seems to be 98 yen in some places in the centre of town now, but up to 5 yen more in other places. To think it was something like 160 yen just a few months ago. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 You are paying too much, it is down to 94 around this part of Tokyo, even in Kofu it is 96 at the cheapest garage. I use either shell or Usami Jomo, as that makes it even cheaper using the pre-paid card. Actually I have pre-paid cards for nearly everywhere. You can usually get up to 5% off using the cards, and if you register your keitai address with the Usami Jomo petrol stations for those of you in living in Yamanashi or Nagano you can get even more off on certain days.

muikabochi 208 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 In this area it is 98-99 yen for normal gasoline at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I paid 92 yesterday. However this is in the stinkiest most unattractive part of Kansai, which is already the rectum of Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
griller 9 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Just before I looked at the few places near me - they were 95, 96 and 96 yen. If you are a member you usually get 2 yen or so off that I think. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 96 at the top of my road. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Yeah it depends a lot where you are, the bigger cities tend to be cheaper of course than the countryside places. However two of the cheapest places I have found is one in takasaki, Gunma at joyful Honda they are about 2-6 yen cheaper than Tokyo depending on the day and another one in Honjo, saitama, also as cheap or cheaper than Tokyo, why I have no idea, but for some reason they are cheaper. I always fill up there when I pass through those areas. Link to post Share on other sites
