Shell Petrol Station at the Chequers roundabout in Horley near Gatwick, paid 79.9 per litre today is this the cheapest? :cool:

84.9 p/ltr @ Pease Pottage, robb'n Barstewards [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

82.9 p/ltr @ Broadbridge Heath, robb'n Barstewards [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Why isn't there just one price nationally.

Dukey :p :p :p

I filled up yesterday at the Shell in Bracknell and it was 77.9p a litre! :D:D

Butty 20 October 2001 12:43 AM

79.9 pence in Rushden, Northants. It was 80.9 but got lowered due to "competition"?
I was also told that Optimax will be the only unleaded fuel in times to come, so normal UL will be phased out.

RichieD 20 October 2001 09:00 AM

Optimax going for 78.9p per litre in Christchurch... plus you get a nice shiny key fob (as long as you lie and say it's the first time you've filled up with Optimax!)...

79.9 in lincoln

Luke 21 October 2001 05:52 AM

Looks like a lot of Petrol staions are taking the Piiss with the price of "OPTIMAX".
As long as you pay for it ,they will charge such a high price.
Maybe if there is a campaign against the high cost in some areas they will reduce thae price and sell more.

Huxley 21 October 2001 02:30 PM

75,9 Shinfield in Reading yesterday, normal unleaded 70.9 and i got yet another Optimax keyring

I wish the local garage in the Newbury area was as cheap RObBING B******

Only 74.9ppl in Ipswich, Do i win a prize?????

Scooby-Duke 23 October 2001 07:11 AM

The prize is cheaper fuel if only more people would complain at the high national costs. Shell Horley is now down to 77.9p/ltr. They said more and more people have whinged recently. It's obvious also thay some stations are profiteering.

Can anyone in the UK beat the 74.9p/ltr???

Thanks for the responce keep it coming.

Kevin Stanton - where in Lincoln do you get your Optimax from, its only 75.9 at the Shell garage on Burton Road roundabout?

RichardC 24 October 2001 05:51 PM

75.9p near Elephant & Castle :D

RichardC

Thats S.E London for those that don't know.

Scooby-Duke 25 October 2001 08:01 AM

Cheers everyone, a spokesman at Shell yesterday told me that due to the overheads differing at different locations. There will be a varying degree of prices, however they envisage prices at 'The Pump' will continue to fall. Yipee.

Keep an eye out for the 70p/ltr??? Will it happen???

cheers, Dukey.

ScoobyJawa 26 October 2001 10:20 AM

Scooby-Duke 27 October 2001 11:06 PM

Lets all move up north, you all seem to be cheaper up there :eek:

76.9p at my local in Horley and coming down at last :D

Whoooo will be the first to break 70.0p

Dukey

gareth 28 October 2001 08:24 AM

I think Optimax is sourced from the Ellesmere Port refinery (remember the blockade?)... so maybe that's why it's cheaper in the northwest.

Tone Loc 29 October 2001 09:09 AM

76.9 ppl in Salford Quays. Was 82.9 ppl only about a month or two ago tho. Its a bargin don't you know!!!!!
