Longcol Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I feel it is going back up again slowly for petrol. Yes - I've noticed that petrol appears to have gone up a few p per litre whilst diesel had certainly stood still at 99.9 for some time round here. If the gap narrows any more I'll consider getting a diesel again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indiana Lee Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 India is one of the most expensive country as far as petrol and diesel prices are concerned. Then why do the Petro companies advertise? Fuel is an essential commodity. No one fuels a car by watching the advertisement but they only see the Fuel-indicator. If the indicator shows decline, you rush to nearest fuel ststion.

Janus Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 When the 2p per litre fuel duty was added recently, the cost of fuel at garages near me increased by more than that. The pump price was 104 pence prior to the duty, and the next thing i saw was a price of 107 pence per litre (petrol). Clearly, the garages take advantage of the duty change and add there own greedy little bit on. Asda have now decided to reduce prices, and i feel it is worth going the extra mile or so, not because it will work out cheaper after considering costs in travelling there, but to boycott all the others. http://www.channel4.com/news/articles/business_money/asda+cuts+petrol+prices+by+2p/3340067 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somnambulist Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 You have not taken into account the VAT increase............... on the 2p duty. Very clever this government...... Very greedy would be a better adjective. I really think that they do not realise that we know that there is both duty AND VAT on fuel! They think that they are fooling us!

pennangton Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Tesco in Bury yesterday was 102.9p. I don't know how they can justify it on average in Sheffield around 105.9p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Lots of places round here in the North West are charging 102.9 for petrol and diesel, although I think petrol is 103.9 at Sainsbury's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansheff Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 There isn't an Asda that sells petrol in Sheffield is there? Thats why Morrisons didn't drop their price in Sheffield last time when Asda dropped it to 99.9. They dropped it at Corton Wood and Parkgate I think but not at Halfway or Catcliffe.

mc55 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 it was 107.9 at Sainsburys last Thursday. I filled up at Sainsburys in Huddersfield (don't worry i'm not some lunatic who drives for 30 miles to save a few pound, I work over there) and paid 102.9 (diesel). Wonder why it varies so widely between the same retailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
