Great Savings Today At Gull


Great Savings Today At Gull

/Beat the GST and excise tax rise with Gull’s/* */5c per litre discount on all of its fuel for 24 hours/

*Auckland, 27 September 2010* – Gull New Zealand announced today that it is discounting all grades of fuel by 5c per litre for 24 hours. The discount begins at 7am today (Monday 27 September) and ends at 7am on Tuesday 28 September.

Graham Stirk, Retail Business Manager for Gull New Zealand, says this discount gives Kiwi motorists the chance to fill up and save before the new tax rises kick in from October.

“Gull New Zealand is committed to providing value for money to Kiwi motorists and this discount is a great opportunity to get added fuel-value and save some cash,” says Stirk.

From 1 October 2010 GST will increase by 2.5 per cent. In addition, excise tax on all petrol will increase the cost at-the-pump by 3c per litre. The combined effect of these increases is expected to increase diesel costs by approximately 3c per litre and petrol costs by approximately 7c per litre.

Stirk concludes, “Today’s discount can also be redeemed in conjunction with Countdown, Woolworths and Foodtown’s fuel dockets, bringing the total savings per litre for those with the dockets to at least 9c per litre.”

At the majority of Gull outlets where Gull controls retail prices, prices are as follows:

Gull Regular Plus (91 Octane biofuel) $1.669

Gull Regular (91 Octane) $1.679

Gull Force 10 (98 Octane biofuel) $1.809

Gull Low Sulphur Diesel $1.129


Gull’s increasing network of unmanned sites will offer a further discount on these prices.
