Consumers can expect further relief in the form of lower petrol prices next month.

Economists say lower international crude oil prices and a stronger rand should push petrol prices down by about 40-cents a litre.

In August petrol prices fell, while September saw a rise.

Now analysts anticipate a price decrease for October which means inland motorists could be paying around seven-Rand-65 per litre for unleaded petrol.
