Just seen petrol at 109.9p a litre in Morrison's in Northampton town

Cheapest I've seen in weeks!

I usually go to Shell (Grose) in Northampton, as their pumps are smooth and easy to use

Also Tesco's are offering 5p per litre off if you spend £50 on groceries

Every little helps!

Mrs Beer is an expert in this subject and mentions it almost every time was pass a petrol station

see here for regular updates (not from Mrs Beer) http://www.petrolprices.com/

What's this, supermarket snobbery !?!

I don't think they do Super but I could be wrong as I usually use Tesco 99, whoops sorry I mean Shell V-Power

Cheapest Super west of town is 115.9 (good old Sainsburys).
I wish my car had a bigger tank so I wasn't there so often.

Would never consider using Morrisons fuel ever again, used once as an emergency and had massive det. Tesco 99 or Sainsbury's 97 are all the old girl drinks now.

Filled up last night at Sainsbury's and was happy to find 97RON at £113.9. But had forgotten my double nectar points on petrol voucher, so the happy / dumb balance was restored.

Cheapest for me in Rushden Waitrose, £112.9 for super.
I only ever use that or V-Power mainly, and cant really tell any difference performance/mpg wise

what the point in watching petrol prices because it will just keep going up and up
like the government dropped vat from 17.5% to 15% then put 2p litre on petrol to cover the difference then vat went back up to 17.5% and petrol stayed the same when the price should of dropped by the 2 litre not unless all the car drivers all protest at the same time
then petrol will keep going up or you/we could drive less miles a week

Because its nice to know where the cheapest fuel is, so we dont have to get ripped off any more than we need to be.
