Super unleaded down to 99.9p a litre how much where you are?

Post by victor2vt » Tue Nov 11, 2008 5:20 pm

Got a pleasant surprise when I filled up this morning, just wondered if prices are the same across the UK ?

Not sure about super unleaded, but unleaded is 92.9 near me, Id imagine super unleaded is less than 99.9 at that garage. I can see a garage price board out of my window, but they dont advertise super unleaded on there :roll:

Petrol prices

Victor2vt, enrol at PetrolPrices .com and they will e-mail you weekly of the prices in your chosen area. Tesco Express at Kenton Lane and Kingston Park is 97.9 but Sainsbury at Heaton is even cheaper at 95.9. However, beware of Sainsbury as when I tried to fill up there some months ago, the nozzle was the old-fashioned 4 star type i.e. too big to fit into the filler neck. Perhaps they've since changed it?????

96.9p for 98 at Sainsburys Hedge End.

97.9p for Tesco 99 at Tesco Bursledon and Branksome (-5p per litre if you spend over £50 in the shop, taking it down to 92.9p).

Still 99.9p for Vpower at Shell Chandlers Ford.

All prices in Aberdeen.
Shell have launched a credit card and i think they offer 3p off a litre if price over £1 a litre.

Paid 94.9p for 97 octane the other day at Sainsburys Vauxhall, admittedly with a 5p per litre voucher. Let's party like it's 2003.

When I started commuting by car in 1978 I had an irrational ambition to pay ten pounds for a tankful but could never quite make it. If only they'd made petrol a bit more expensive I could have swaggered in to pay and acted the big-shot.

From what you're saying, the £100 tankful is slipping away, too.

I managed £60 at the height of the price madness.

Did I mention this was irrational?

When I started driving in 1997, my target was 100 miles to £10, but suppose this was more an effeciency drive than price.

Think Sainsbury Cannock is 95.9p at the mo for Super.

According to Petrolprices.com, superunleaded is 95.9 at the Sainsbury's petrol station 6 miles away! :shock:
It's 99.9 at my nearest petrol station (Shell) about 1 mile away.

Unleaded is 92.9 at all the local stations, and diseasel is 106.9.
