If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
That does seem expensive.. that would be €5.36c here in Europe.. I wouldn't even pay if it was €4.60c..And, they're not even that nice.

Free market. If you had popped to Guilsfield 2 miles from Welshpool (Soupey), small Garage is at least always 10p litre cheaper than Soupey Tescos.

Found this opinion piece on that afr site. This Mark DiStefano is not a fan and absolutely skins him alive.
Tim Gurner: Property tycoon got his start with help from boss, grandfather
Anyone with half a memory will know Timbo has form. He became a pre-pandemic meme in property circles as the “Avocado Toast Guy”, suggesting that people priced out of the property market should simply eat less brunch.This year, Timbo spruiked his $150 million luxury anti-ageing brand, Saint Haven. It turns out Timbo is not just obsessed with staying young – a red flag in itself – but he’s building “cult-like” man caves, where he can rope in the rich to steam themselves and drink tequila.
Gurner Group founder Tim Gurner says workers are "arrogant" since the COVID era and "We've got to kill that attitude."
Timbo, with all this chilling out in oxygen chambers and fiddling around with your oura ring, it’s no wonder Australia’s productivity is so low!
Fellow Rich Lister Harry Triguboff once called Timbo “the future”, while Morry Schwarz has been fingered as a mentor.
A few years ago, Timbo revealed that he first bought a St Kilda apartment for “180k” and then had “my boss at the time approach me to renovate it while he fronted the money”.
He fronted the money. The boss did. Golly it must be nice to have an employer who doesn’t think you’re a lazy arsehole, but rather reaches into their pocket to help out a young fella.
Timbo went on to say that he later “took out a $150,000 loan using the $34,000 from his grandfather”.
Of course! Because it’s a tale stitched into the fabric of the Australian dream. The lump sum inheritance, or the familial guarantor. The financial backstop that’s always there in every story, though never in the headline. They are the foundational facts that are glazed over in the origin stories of Australia’s over-levered property wunderkinds.
The reason Timbo’s comments have resonated globally is not so much that he’s a capitalist edgelord who is willing to publicly say the thing that other bosses are secretly thinking. Although there are surely readers of this newspaper who are quietly agreeing with him.
It’s because Tim Gurner encapsulates all the fears that regular people have of the property industry. That when landlords and property developers go into functions and hotel ballrooms, they all privately gripe about the ungrateful serfs. But the mask didn’t slip here. Timbo ripped it off.
The next time Timbo chunters on about any aspect of economic policy, or about the current predicament of employer-employee relationships, he should be forced to staple to his forehead how he really “made it”. Lord knows there’s enough room.
