    Screenshot_20220710-101441_Google Play Store.jpg Just been giving a link to this and I found it very handy, tells you the cheapest fuel prices around the area you in around Britain. Even has a star on the cheapest.
    Handy app if you're like me who didn't really look for cheapest fuel but is now.

    It's ****ing criminal how quickly the increases hit the pump prices but then when oil drops it's never passed on. Absolutely disgusting

    As I’m self employed I have a Costco membership card. Way cheaper there than anyone else and much better i quality fuel too. I work on a Sunday morning in Newburn so have to drive past it basically too at least once a week

    191.7 for diesel tonight. But you need a Costco membership card. I use them for a lot of stuff as I’m self employed I claim VAT back too so it’s worth the £22 a year I pay for membership

    Early in Cameron’s reign the govt stated they’d found out the petrol companies had been overcharging for TEN years and it would be investigated. It was obvious that we’d hear no more , because they’d quickly realise that to order the petrol companies to equivalently undercharge for next ten years , then they would have to hand back all the vat they’d happily pocketed from the extra .

    Thanks for this.

    194.9p is the cheapest in South Tyneside, Gulf near Tyne Dock. Yet the same garage brand next to Temple Park is 199.9p?

    I read today that the supermarkets are the country’s biggest petrol sellers. With Tesco way above the garages maybe they should be our first target? This protesting business isn’t as easy as it looks !

    According to the Guardian , it’s the refineries who are keeping their margins higher than they’ve ever done before. So thinking they are the lesser known link in the chain , they can quietly take advantage of the situation and fill their boots .
