Surprising, where I am in Canberra, I never see it below 1.99 AUD/litre for the cheapest ethanol heavy stuff, but at my local nearly always see it above $2 AUD. But I don't get fuel that often so maybe I've just missed the drops.

Ahh, just realized $1.3 USD is about $2 AUD or ~$5.1USD/gallon, so yeah that tracks I guess.
