An appeal to Safefill users - and others!

Some people seem to miss the several points about Refillables - Safefill or others - One is you can top up at your convenience so unless doing long trips - this can be done wherever you normally do at home.  I have just returned from a trip and on the journey home spent three nights not hooked up on a 3 Cs site at a saving of around £4 a night.  I called in at Brayford Leisure and topped up on the way home - while also getting a couple of warranty bits put right.  .2 of a litre was all that was used for fridge in hot weather and hot water.  Plus a couple of kettles - didn't cook anything else. 

I will be sending emails in due course. 

 

Incidentally Brayford Leisure - Lincoln are offering a free fill up when you buy a Safefill cylinder. 

There's an independent supplier 2 mins drive from my house .... you pass it going to Burrs ... cheaper than the likes of B&Q too 

At the risk of bringing 'over there' into the equation, the other major advantage of refillables is the availability of LPG whilst abroad. Whilst this has no relevance to those who are "all electric" and never venture abroad, it is all about flexibility and availability of a service.

No axe to grind as we use very little gas, apart from barbecuing via cadac. But surely one cannot compute the profitability or otherwise of a garage stocking LPG based on that single product alone.

all retail outlets of all kinds use the availability or pricing of product A to encourage customers to visit, and thus potentially buy products B & C as well. That’s why many retailers, including garages, sell newspapers. The shelf space needed could not be justified on sales/profitability value alone, but the knock-on sales are potentially substantial. ..... including coffee or pastries as suggested! Let alone petrol.

The availability of LPG, and the opportunity to refill Safefill or alternatives, would surely work similarly to attract new customers and increase the spend per visit. 

Why not support the greater availability of any product or service that in turn supports the leisure industry of which we are all part? What’s to lose?

Succinctly put IAN. Thank you! 

Last time I filled the motorhome fixed tank with LPG there was a private car in front of me filling their tank. I believe a number of taxis use LPG as well so there is quite a market. If we all barbecued at home more often we would be more like New Zealand where most garages seem to have an LPG pump for filling cylinders.

Not interested DD. You are mischief making. We are talking about getting more fill points for Safefill. Thanks. 

Emails sent. One day I may switch to refillable 

but if it is not safe?
