Just drove past our local Morrisons, another 2p off a litre.

Better than a kick in the balls.

Anyone know if this is going to keep comming, as I could stretch out a few more days before I fill up, and more importantly considering "they" said it would never drop below 100 dollars a barrel again, what's the thinking now?

Amazing really that we're all happy with petrol at just under a pound a litre.

It's good it's coming down, but I won't be happy until it's much lower than 97.9!!

Been like that at our local Morrisons for the past couple of days. "Look it's gone down, lets block the roads and queue for an hour to save 2p/litre"

Idiots!

Nadgers, that's twice in a week that I've filled up just moments before the price coming down. If I'd timed it better, I could have had one of those interesting looking pasties that they sell in the petrol station for free. Mmmmmmmm... pastry covered meat products lick

Serious question: looking at your profile you drive a very tidy but standard looking Prelude. What on earth do you need V-Power for?

And back to the OP - I noticed them queuing down the road at Morrissons on Saturday. Filled up there myself this evening. It's a far cry from the £2/litre that everyone (myself included!) was predicting by the end of the year smile
