Save some money in Drayton
In our opinion, petrol at the 2 stations on Brisbane st in Drayton is usually a little cheaper than others in Toowoomba (BP and Pacific). You will find a couple with VERY cheap petrol elsewhere but theirs doesn't seem to last long in the tank.
Instead of eating out you can walk (15mins) or drive (less than 5mins) to the supermarket in Drayton. It has everything you might need to cook your own food here at the studio.
Halal options are available at the Coles Supermarket in Toowoomba Plaza (small designated meat section including salami) which is less than 10 min away.
