Question £.££/litre ... the petrol survey

So, its not cheap, and it never really has been for a while, we all know that

That said, I remember it being 67p a litre back in the day when I used to help my dad go to the petrol station..... So:

Whats the last price you paid, and where...

or

Whats the last price you SAW and refused to pay, so kept going?

Diesel/Petrol. Grade is irrelevant.

I'll Start:

£ 1.26/l - BP - Unleaded, at a pump that was 1.16 last week. Postcode = GU14
Kept going, its just round the corner from my house so theres more options yet.

Who's next?

At the moment I try to fill up at not more than 118.99p (mad innit) . Last week whilst on reserve and a few stations not having any unleaded, I filled up at 117p(Total in Balham)....good surprise that as most were 119p or more

BP seems to be taking the pish the most I have to say.

My last fillup was 115.9, at Morrisons in Bramley, but when I went out for the ride I'd filled up for, I saw a 129.9 sign

i've seen diesel advertised at £1.49/l on some of the smaller garage forecourts on the island, and that wasn't during the fuel strike or anything, just business as normal - no wonder they're shutting so quickly... i refuse to stop at the garage closest to me, which was at 1.33/l a couple of weeks back when i drove past, and generally stop at morrisons for all my fuel, A. because it's fairly close and right near where i work so i can grab some on the way in, and B. it's generally the cheapest on the island, currently 1.17/1.30 for petrol/diesel

We are having car petrol tank pipes cut around here and the fuel syphoned out it has happened to a few of my neighbours, the way its going looks like the petrol will be more valuable to the thieves than your car stereo
