Default A tale of two Shell Stations.

We USED to have two. One was opposite Asdas, so it's prices closely followed Asda's price, and the other one, of course, had to follow suit.
Even V-Power was only about 4p a litre dearer than 95.

Then they sold the one opposite Asdas to Jet, (surprise!).

Now, the price at the remaining one is NOWHERE near Asda's price, being 5p a litre dearer for 95 and V-Power is 9 p dearer a litre still.

Thieving chunts!

Erm, don't buy V-Power then?

I know its annoying, but basically we are stuck with getting dry humped for fuel, nothing we can do about it. Fuel protesting is now a Terrorist act, thanks UK Govt, and OPEC will restrict supply to keep the price high.

basically, like it or lump it - sorry to say.

The Shell near Asda used to be all over the place price wise. I don't recall it being 1-2p difference, some 4-5p for NUL. V-power used to be 6ppl more than NUL but it's closer to 10p now. Well was last time I looked. I use Tesco Momentum now and get clubcard points instead. Shell was 144.9 where Tesco was 136.9

Jet seems to be pretty stable with prices round here.
