I like the following quote:

" Last month, US oil prices rose to a record $42.45 a barrel. "

I'm interested to know why Tesco haven't done the same... though as I don't use them for fuel since they started demanding I take my lid off before filling :(

I was happy (happier) to fill up at Morrissons this morning with a 4p/l drop in price though, and, to top it off, got my 5quid off voucher for saving up all those 'Morrissons miles' :)

Re: petrol price wars
 

Watch the Morrissons fuel though, I've had some problems with the bike being a bit 'rough' round the edges after using it.

Re: petrol price wars
 

I paid 117.9p this morning at a normally expensive pertol station, last week I paid 119.9 in a Tesco Express. Not much but at least its going the right way!

Re: petrol price wars
 

Hmm, been using the same morrissons for a year or so now and haven't noticed anything odd. It could be that I was so used to the crap coming out of the tesco pumps that I didn't notice and its just 'been fine' to me ;)

I can remember buying two stroke premix for my old track bike & it was 50p a gallon, mind you i am an old fart, they were the days, we had real butter for tea & clean newspapers on the bed, bye eck.

Most interesting is that diesel is only 1p litre more.

Re: petrol price wars
 

The price of oil is still dropping at a decent rate.

On another note, doing the maths.

Saudi Arabia produces 10million barrels of oil a day......at $130 a barrel

Thats a cool $1.3billion a day being made......insane amounts of money.

Was a time when it was about 75% the price of petrol. :(
