The Esso garage in Coldstream:

£1.35 unleaded
£1.54 diesel

Dunno how they do it unless there's some dodgy pipeline from Russia laugh

That's astonishing....mind you it's been evident since the peak prices that supermarkets have been much slower to lower them than the local outlets

Maybe a money laundering scheme? There was a garage near me run by known local gangsters where they were selling fuel below cost to launder money. Lasted quite a while before it was all discovered and shut down.

All the supermarkets are not lowering their prices in Inverness, but the next village is £1.39. Queues of vehicles are not that a rare sight spilling out onto the road.

Cheapest round here yesterday and today was E1.62, call it £1.41 at current exchange rates. But in Germany, the price is up and down on a regular basis... https://ich-tanke.de/tankstellen/super-e10/umkreis/14469-potsdam/

Potsdam?? shocked

Ask Mrs Stan, but that's yet another city I can't go back to! rolleyes

I was only following orders, honest, how was I supposed to know........!

GMan, you'll need to share the exact coordinates of that garage, I don't mind driving 100 miles to save 2p a litre on fuel! laugh

We travelled up to Bonny Scotland last week and numbskull here saw a village filling station selling fuel at a similar price to GMan's price, but me being an idiot said "Well, if they can sell it at that price, it'll be cheaper in town! Wrong! The cheapest I could find, bearing in mind I drink from the black nozzle, was £1.69.9p/l Cry? I nearly broke into a smile, but thankfully avoided that!

We seem blessed down here in the South east at the moment as locally petrol is £1.39 and diesel is £1.59 so hopefully this will come down a bit more in the new year. Lets hope nothing more kicks off in Ukraine etc to spoil it.
