Petrol

Is it my imagination, or are petrol prices creeping back up again?
How much is it in your area now? I saw £1.11 per litre here yesterday, but it was only just over a £1.00 a few weeks ago.

Re: Petrol

Same here. It has been steadily going up here from the lowest at 1.20 Euros, now 1.34 Euros. It seems to be higher every time I pass the pumps!

Yes, I read that view but also read the opposite saying that the price was expected to stay low for some time. Guess who to believe!

Still, with the current Euro/pound exchange rates we're getting it cheaper here than in the UK.

Re: Petrol

Yes I've noticed it too! Morrisons now £1.10.

Tell you what else is creeping up: baked beans. I'm stockpiling some tins. In Morrisons, the prices are 150g 45p, and 200g 49p. Elsewhere they are more expensive. I think Tesco are charging much more.

Re: Petrol

Our Diesel is £1.16 its lowest was £1.11
I think all the Garages just follow suit. And we've noticed that through the week it's cheaper and when the Weekend comes it goes up, same at holiday periods too.
