I just assumed that they had started pricing it by the pint.

I know what you mean, I drove to work this morning on the way it was £129.9 on the way back £126.9 glad I did not fill up on the way.
wasted enough time trying to get drive side door to close >:(

Thats cos you keep dropping your wallet down there ;D

Get ready for the Gov to now re-introduce the 2p tax they posponed >:(
Sorry to put a dampner on it :P
-
don't get your hopes up too high - unlikely it will come down any further.
besides, only a year ago it was less than £1 a litre - now people think they are getting a bargain at 121.9p
sorry but even at 50p a litre its still a rip off

Bingo!!
And the govt seriously SERIOUSLY think theyre doing us a favour by not putting the extra 2p tax on a litre of fuel. All this when whatever you pay per litre that 66% of it is tax anyway.
If we still sold fuel by the gallon instead of the litre the proposed tax hike for the Autumn would have been approaching 10p a gallon, people would have been far likely to rebel at that; but because its sold in smaller volumes now they can get away with it, but it just means it SEEMS less tax.
Personally I reckon if they tried to hike 10p per gallon onto fuel they'd have had everyone out on the motorways not just lorry drivers holding all the traffic up.

well said matt
its all spin - the gov have people hoodwinked into thinking its not that bad, what a load of cobblers.
If someone told you 2 years ago that you'd be paying £1.30 a litre for diesel now you would have fainted, I would have.
but as usual we all just go on and ignore it - the french on the other hand??
-
aye, im not saying its cheap by any means because it isnt, i was saying i almost fainted because i went to petrol station and the price was actually less than last week not more
-
the french on the other hand??
In May President Sarkozy proposed to the EU that VAT should be scrapped on fuel - This fantastic proposal was not reported at all by the British media - are we suprised >:(
[The EU has given a cool reception to an idea raised on Tuesday (27 May) by French President Nicolas Sarkozy for an EU-wide capping of the value added tax (VAT) on fuel as a way to tackle surging oil prices.
"If [the price of] oil continues to rise, should we not suspend the VAT tax part of oil prices?" Mr Sarkozy told French radio RTL.

I think we should vote him in as our PM, the French Government know that they have a responsability to their people!( if they dont want their heads cut off) Unlike our money grabing parasites

Those 5p per litre deals are a farce I reckon. Of course yes you are saving something but its so small.
you have spend about £130.00 to save £3.50, big friggin deal.

every body has to shop, i spend way over that on a weekly shop any way. price at pump was already lower than many in the area , and i could get our shopping and fill up a bit cheaper.

Does that include a reduction for buying goods in a supermarket (or similar) or is that the basic price? Was still 120.9p when I looked yesterday.
Seems funny that a few months ago, I pulled up at a small outlet. When I saw it was 110.9p, I drove off in disgust (it was about 5 - 6p more than others in the area).

£116.9 at Asda in Cornwall without reduction for using their credit card (and extra 2p a litre).

my mortgage has just come down too, 1/2 a percent with instant effect as i am on a tracker mortgage

Keep your eyes peeled at the pumps!
I used a smaller filling station in Stafford recently, because I was caught with the needle almost on the empty.
The price on the pump was higher than the price on the large illuminated sign at the entrance!
I reported the shysters to Stafford Trading Standards.

Yep. Friday was the first time in ages that I paid under a quid a litre. I'm saving about 34p a litre from peak price which equates to about £50 a month.
-
Diesel 99.9
Petrol 87.9
Plymouth, Devon
-
99.9 in belfast, tesco
-
Deisiel 98p at my local Shell garage in Stourbridge today so must be cheaper at supermarkets.
-
Diesels down to 98.9 here as well and if i go to Asda and use my credit card i save another 2p per litre
I honestly never thought we would see diesel below £1 per litre but its still way over priced
-
99.9 in walsall,
would like to see it come down to the same, or even cheaper then unleaded,
it use to be cheaper , can't see why it is dearer ???
