Don’t know if this is the cheapest fuel on offer at the moment?

Unleaded £1.42.9

Diesel £1.51.9

I filled up when passing yesterday!

A41 2 miles south of Whitchurch. Shropshire 

Anyone buying it cheaper?

I am still using the CAMC Esso fuel card. Paid £148.9 in Yeovil Somerset last Tuesday, the pump price was £1.52.9.  Today I go in again today passed the stn and its now £149.9 so the discount price 4 p off £144.9.  The local Asda was £154.7 today. This is for diesel.

£1.64.9 at Tesco here when I filled up the MH a week ago and I don’t think it’s come down since. There does seem to be significant disparity across the country.

You can say that again. I topped up just over half a tankful a couple of weeks ago at Asda Gillingham, Kent for £1.597. Back home at the Tesco Northarbour just outside Portsmouth the next day it was 9p a litre dearer. What is the justification? Both locations are about the same distance from a refinery.

There is no justification it is just greed.

Although there seems to be discrepancies between regions there appears to be a levelling off between petrol station prices in a given area. Many of of those that we pass are within a few decimal points of eachother

+1, they are empowered to do what they believe they can get away with. The only time they stop the theft is if they get caught🙁

Unfortunately the lot of them have put the price back up to £1.429 this morning. Cartels live and kicking again.

As expected S🤷🏻‍♂️. The energy companies are the same. Once upon a time we had an energy watchdog who protected the consumer, not anymore the WDog is dictated to by the energy companies. The world is sighing a relief as the energy costs fall with the falling price of gas & oil. . .Except us-next month our bills jump again. . .More sickeningly high & obscene profits for them again.

I read on the BBC website this morning that petrol and diesel actually costs the same wholesale! 

Diesel is being sold for about 17p per litre more on average than petrol, despite wholesale costs falling to similar levels, a motoring group said.
Average diesel prices are £1.64 per litre compared with £1.47 per litre for petrol, while both are priced at about £1.15 wholesale, the RAC said.
It said the difference was "scandalous" and that cuts in the wholesale price had not been passed on to customers

Today I paid 159.9p for diesel at Tesco in Falkirk, which is a fair bit below the average price, but of course I would have wanted it cheaper. Can't understand why it is not in line with the price of petrol.
