Outrageous petrol prices!

[veevee]

I just filled up at 127.9p, for goodness sake.. I remember only a couple of months ago it was 135, if not 140!

[nickcowen]

I try not to look at the price of fuel because it's pains me

[pwrc]

awaiting the older ph'ers to come in and say how it cost two potatoes and a go on their sister back in the day

Fixed.

Ran short on the motorway today

Got too scared to risk it any longer after the orange light started flashing 40 miles or so ago had to stop at a service station on the M1 just south of Leeds.

£1.46.8 for diesel.

there was me thinking oil had gone down thieving scumbags. when they sort the bankers out they should go after people who take advantage of a captive customer.

put £6 in and the needle didn't even fking move.

The Bp on Hampstead Hill in Camden have reduced there unleaded to 'just' 144.9,they are always at least 10p a litre more than anywhere else.
It amazes me that they sell any petrol at those prices

I was paying 143.9, now paying 124.9

If its anything like the BP round here, half of the business' in the town have fuel cards with them including a large NHS depot, so the majority of people that use it dont care of the price hence why it is always at least 5p a litre more expensive.

Not sure if there is a need to celebrate, they've just gone from completely taking the piss to moderately taking the piss.....if you look at how far the oil price has fallen you'd still think it was a rip-off

That happened to me at the weekend, pulled into a service station near Nottingham saw it at a similar price and decided to leave the empty forecourt empty and carried on, found a Tesco with fuel at 129.

Who remembers the olden days?

I tried shell v power and got more poppyness, 99ron has been my fuel of choice for a while, now willing to be made sore by shell prices.
