I'm reasonably local so on that note, the local Asda is still £1.47 for diesel and has been around that figure for months. I'm not sure who owns what, ie how many garages like the BP in Cowdenbeath, are franchised thus who sets the prices... ie, is it a character who smells a bit extra cash or is it BP etc?

And whilst yes, I'm all for some individuals who run a forecourt making money... much like support your local corner shop rather than go to Tesco etc etc, but when the price difference is that dramatic that you know it's borderline profiteering... then if people stopped using them...

There's a tiny fuel station on the road from Perth to Crieff, it was still around £1.47 on Saturday and my local, unmanned site is also £1.47... so if they haven't whacked the prices up yet, not have the supermarkets... what's the story in Cowdenbeath?

But people will pay it as we've become conditioned to the fact everything is ridiculous post COVID, it now just feels like any excuse and the prices rise and we meekly shrug our shoulders and pay. I think we need to start saying "No" again soon.

The Cowdenbeath BP garage is now.

Petrol - £141.9

Diesel - £173.9

With those prices the only thing they will be seeing is tumbleweed blowing through the forecourt it certainly won't be cars.
