Diesel Prices

[Fossil]

Evening all!

Looks as if fuel prices are still sliding the right way.

RED = 87.45p = 102.7 inc

SMART = 87.99p = 103.4 inc

INFUELS = As Smart

Can we hope this isn't just a temporary dip !!??

All thoughts welcome

Hi tc trans

As I suspected it's all a bit like the lottery. Mate of mine has best price of 88.45 from Smart.

Suspect they'll ring him Monday and offer better.

Not sure I agree with the above. I'm paying 102.7p inc vat and the cheapest pump price in this area is approx £1.08 to £1.09, so 5 or 6p a litre more. Amounts to roughly £30 saving over the week.

It's been way out for months, the fuelcard co was even worse. I tend to fill up on the my Shell CC and get my 3% cash back

i,ve heard someone else on about that shell c/card, how does that work then, do they need your life story before you can have one or is it just like a credit card application?

It's just a CC application, I did it in my own name, keep the receipts, and claim the Money back from my Company, cash back is 2% on normal purchases and 6% on fuel purchases for the 1st 60 days, dropping to 1% and 3% after that. You can also use the Shell rewards card. They didn't ask for any background, just home address etc, and immediately gave me a 5 grand limit, not enough to run an artic flat out for 2 months I know, but enough to fill up, everytime you see some cheap fuel.

Week comencing 23/11/08

RED= 85.83
SMART=85.99
CROFT=87.11

Quoted w/c 23/24 Nov.
Red 87.23
Smart 85.99

So it appears a pattern is emerging. Used Red last week @ 87.45 & obviously didn't use Smart.
So this week Smart chop 2 ppl off whereas Red think I'm using them again & keep their price up. What's the betting I get a phone call mid-week saying, "We've noticed you're not using us".
But hey shouldn't winge too much as at least it's still coming down.
