I see UK petrol has hit a new high:

However, that is nothing:

I paid 1.84 Euros per litre today, nearly 20cents per litre more than the UK.

Hi 

As I spent over £60 at Morrisons on the weekly shop, I got a 15p a litre off at their petrol station.  I could only get £40 worth of fuel in the tank but saved about a fiver.  I think the offers on for the rest of the weekend so if you haven't done your shopping yet, get down there quick!!!

We have noticed in our area in the UK that many more people are using the buses...so in some ways that could be a good thing. Thumbs Up

There's a place in Moriatika selling at EUR1.93!.  They are always more expensive than surrounding garages (3Km away you can get it for EUR 1.84) - just can't understand why people (locals in particular) don't take their trade elsewhere!

Cornwall always managed some of the highest prices in the UK just before the season starts. Paid £1,34 this afternoon in Asda for unleaded.

Blimey Graham thats good, Just driven back from Croydon (about 12 miles) the cheapest we saw was £1.39.9 the dearest £1.43.9
Wendy got a petrol voucher from Tesco recently for 10p off a litre. Sadly the nearest Tesco petrol station is miles away. By the time we hade used enough petrol to make it worthwhile trecking over there it had expired. Still cheaper to stay at home.

I spent £70 this morning in Cardiff - my tank was low. Indeed I didn't have enough left to get home to Neath (about  40 miles). It was £1.379 per Litre  for Unleaded at Tesco. Bargain!!! Wink

Filled up at Morrisons at £1.37 in Yorkshire but had to queue, this is getting really worrying for us couriers, business isn't good without having the problem not being able to do a job!!!
