Just been up to Stafford today to move my son down from university and paid 113.9 per litre in a local petrol station.
The local ASDA was the same price. 119.9 is the cheapest I can find it locally. Why the marked difference between them & us? Is it something to do with the transport of the stuff or just a measure of the local cost of living? Whatever it is we are loosing out.

Crap maths apart and back to the point, why are petrol prices so much more expensive in and around Newbury compared with much of the rest of the country?

Do you ever get the feeling this question is getting ignored? Really really does annoy me. I was in Sussex at the weekend and the average price down there was £1.30 compared to the £1.35 we get stung for. Personally I would expect our local MP to be working on this on behalf of his constituents to ensure we are not being ripped off! |
