A little-known app has been dubbed a ‘secret weapon’ for Aussies struggling with rising petrol prices.

A Melbourne mum recently revealed she uses the My 7-Eleven app to lock in the price of fuel for seven days – and she’s not alone.

‘It pays to have the 7-Eleven fuel app as fuel stations are going up – as you can see you can lock it in and use it at any one,’ she wrote in a budget Facebook group.

The woman also shared images of the rate of petrol on the day compared to her lock in price.
