How much you paying for fuel.

[PJ87]

The juggernaut needed half a tank as we were passing anyways , and going few places this week

£1.709 a litre

£59 for half a tank

Blimey. Been ages since I filled up.. infact It was the week before the fuel crisis in September I believe..

Prob explains the flat battery the other day.. only done 300 miles since sept

No unleaded fuel at local BP and all but out at local main Sainsburys.

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

...and so today we hear that Unleaded could hit 180p/l in the next few days - maybe 185p/l. Well in some of my local filling stations it is already 179.9p/l - local Sainsburys it was 169.9/l but some pumps empty.

What cost that 5p reduction in fuel duty just 2 months ago - seems that all we have now is reduced tax take for the chancellor along with the crippling cost of fuel for the rest of us. At least it's not 185p/l today - though in not too many days or weeks it will be.

Would be handy if I could choose to use the £400 I'm getting from the Chancellor for electricity and gas bills (much needed by the poorer and struggling of us), to help with my fuel costs, but apparently that £400 is going to go direct to the power and gas companies so they can reduce their bill to me. But of course as for fuel duty reduction and current fuel costs, if fear that all that will happen is that my power costs will not jump up as quickly as they otherwise would have. But they will still go up. Such difficult times.

To use the new freedoms, unleaded is about 18 shillings and sixpence a pint around my area.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Unleaded is 169-70 here, diesel is 179-182. There are certain locations that area always 2-3p cheaper but these figures are about average for the area.

 

[Billysboots]

I’ve been paying over £1.80 a litre for diesel for at least a couple of weeks.

 

[patricks148]

Diesel is 177.9 and Unleaded 169 at Tesco

And to demonstrate how useful our new freedoms are…on that basis let me work out in my head how much 25 litres will cost me…erm…erm…oh forget it.

 

[Imurg]

Filled up at the local Tesco today - £ 1.75.9 a litre....

 

[Slime]

A friend says all this is fake news.... the price does not affect him since he always fills 20 quid worth everytime. Nothing has changed..
