149.9 in the West end mate.
Yep gone down around here as well, paid 135.9 for petrol in Norwich last week, was around the 140 mark a few weeks ago.
What I can’t understand is how the price varies between towns around here, Thetford 15 miles away is always a little dearer then where I live and Norwich 15 mile in the other direction a couple of pence cheaper again. I reckon by the time I get to Cromer it will be at 1970’s prices.
Fuel is being cut everywhere, not because of some manufactured “price war” as depicted in the media, but because forecourts are finally passing on recent price cuts in the wholesale price to the rest of us.
The cash price of unleaded has fallen quite sharply over recent weeks, in line with the problems in Europe. It’s called “deflation risk”.
Bring it on I say! We’ve already paid the price of lower wages, so let’s have some lower costs of living to go with it at this latter stage eh?
WHOLESALE CASH PRICE OF UNLEADED CHART
The price is dollars per gallon US, but the chart pattern is pretty much the same for unleaded everywhere.
Brent Crude (North Sea Oil, but still priced in Dollars)
WTI (Texas) Crude (Cheaper, because you have to go and get it from the hub in Oklahoma yourself!)
So as you can see, with these wholesale prices coming from both London and New York, the forecourt falls have NOTHING to do with any price war whatsoever!
Don’t buy into the conspiracy.
Don’t take out any “fixed price” natural gas contracts either! - Scaremongering currently in progress to try and egg people on just as the price cuts are finally passed onto the customers… Check out the natural has price chart and how much of THAT fall in the past year has been passed onto consumers?
MSA’s are still charging in the 140’s for unleaded, but in most “normal” areas now, we’re in the mid-130’s.
Sittingbourne Esso on the A2 was 134.9 when I passed it this morning.
Still a long way to go before it catches up with the price falls already on those charts!
Remember 2008? Didn’t we see 119.9 drop to 82.9 within a few short months?

Thats because Cromer is stuck in the 1970s

Another big fall today in the price of Crude, Diesel, Petrol, Currencies, and the Stock market.
Big rises are Bonds (implying interest rates lower not higher for some time to come)
and the Dollar (implying that even the US is in a lot better shape than anywhere in Europe is!)
Fuel has been following the Euro downwards for some weeks now, so I suggest that further weakening of the Euro is a GOOD thing for trucking firms everywhere!
Today’s close for Brent Crude is the lowest this year so far…
Bought diesel at £1.37 in Diss this morning at a Shell station, but noticed the Shell on the A11 n/b at Attleborough was £1.40. Sounds like some profiteering going on here.
I saw some at 1.40 this morning so I nipped in to put 20 quids worth in. Except it wasn’t 1.40 it was 1.50 because I grabbed the wrong nozzle. It was premier or supreme or something like that. Both black pipes, both yellow handles and when I paid, I told the bloke, his answer was “Yeah lots of people do that”
I am still fuming over wasting money
£1.30 at supermarkets here in Runcorn, but a certain 2 letter logo supplier still charging £1.45 half a mile up the road, guess where i go?
Just think how much money you could have saved filling the TDI at the unleaded pump at this place…
With Euros a bit cheaper now, is there a significant difference between public pump prices in Belgium and France, and do they play the “tourist trap” of having expensive prices near the ports, but much cheaper further inland?
The huge drop in Petroleum products of late affects prices wherever there might be a pump after all.
local tesco to me in Hull is 131.9 for unleaded
I’d like to find out the price of petrol at the pumps priced in Euros around Calais area. Websites on the subject seem to be out of date, as is this seemingly totally useless site that people seem to be sticking any old ■■■■■■■■ on and calling it “the price”. I’m pretty sure it ain’t E50 per litre, or 0.67 euros per litre either!
(Coquelles area)
£1.28 at Sainsburys in Newastle under Lyme
£1.34 at Sainsburys in Nantwich
both unleaded just 12 miles apart both about the same distance from J16 of the M6.
Think they charge according to other garages in the vicinity
Diesel 135.9 as I went through Tamworth this morning.

And the BP on the s/b will be a penny more.
£60 goes into your tank
£36 quid goes to the taxman
£1.60 goes to the oil companies as profit
I heard this on the radio news the other day some minister said she was going to tackle the oil companies about the price of derv then the journo said this to her and it shut her up!
