Thames residents fed up with dis-proportionately high price of petrol

Fuel in the Coromandel town costs between $2.91 and $2.96 a litre for 91 octane, 20 - 30 cents a litre more than nearby areas like Ngatea, or Tairua, which sit at around $2.69 a litre. Several locals said they've started boycotting their gas stations, travelling out of town any time they need to fill up their car, Luka Forman reports.
