Hello and welcome to the December 2006 issue of the MotorMouth Newsletter.
This month we have taken a look at how much we are now paying for fuel compared to 6 months ago and 12 months ago. It is interesting to note that November 2006 prices are slightly below what we were experiencing this time last year and certainly well below those in May 2006.

Drive safely over the holiday period and make sure you time your petrol purchases to buy at the bottom of the cycle if you possibly can.
This month's winner is Kathy from Mirrabooka in WA .
Kathy's entry - Vouchers
"I think its great how some service stations have vouchers eg CALTEX STAR CASH.
As my husband and I are setting off to travel around Australia on a working holiday in January, we have suggested receiving these as gifts for birthdays an Xmas from our family.
So far we have enough for 2000 kilometres. We love to see them adding up as its less fuel that we have to pay for and we are receiving something that goes towards fun for us both."
Congratulations Kathy! Your prize will be sent out
to you shortly.
