Default Morrisons and Asda cut unleaded to 99.9p

It says so on Sky News.


It sad to get excited about it when you consider what the prices used to be even 5 years ago, but its still better than 121.9p at its peak.

50 litres of petrol is now £10 cheaper than it was 5 months ago.

So every time I fill my car up I'm saving £10 at the moment.....and thats 2 sometimes 3 times a week.

So I'm saving £120 - £150 a month alone.

Good News for me......

The prices of a barrel of oil has fallen below $69....

Not that long I imagine.

Last time oil was at $69 a barrel fuel was .70p

Next time it jump upto $140 a barrel (which it will as soon as the economy picks up and there is a demand) unleaded will be at £1.50 a litre.

It might have abit to drop before then though.

This must be leaving a really bitter taste in the mouth of those that proudly proclaimed "petrol will never go below £1/litre again!"...

I am certain they will now say "well it'll soon go back up" - yes, it may, it's very volatile at the moment, but at the end of the day it's still gone below £1...and with the murmurs of unrest amongst OPEC's members, it's not a given that it will go back up...

Out of interest I thought the price was lower last time the oil was $70/barrel - it was 99.9p when the oil was roughly $90-100/barrel I thought...be interesting to see if anyone has any details...
