Ive seen it on the A41 southbound recently at 84.9p for unleaded in the Shell out towards Eastham, although as everywhere else is increasing to 86.9p minimum they will go to 85.9p if they have not already. Optimax was 88.9p, should be 89.9p when the premium unleaded cost increases.

Ive been by Asda a few times this week and they have actually been 1p higher per litre then the Shell near Eastham on the A41.

The last time I filled up there everywhere else was 87.9p, the Asda was 86.9p and the Shell in question was 85.9p.

Hopefully it will be 84.9p today as I have to go that way later on, so I will call in and fill up me tank hehe!

Tesco at Bidston Moss is 91.9p per litre. But id rather pay the extra 1p per litre at Shell (92.9p), I get pluspoints for it (I dont really use Tesco, Asda is far better for food shopping, so I dont use Clubcard), the petrol is "usually" of a higher quality as its not just "sourced" from the cheapest provider (and Shell are an oil company, they spend billions improving their petrol quality, Tesco dont) and I know a couple of people (mainly with bikes) who have fallen foul of Tesco watering down their petrol...

I work at stanlow and locally;

Tesco Petrol - Comes from Stanlow
Morrisons Petrol - Comes from Stanlow
Esso Petrol - Same
Texaco Petrol - Same

Any 'buggeration' would be done by tesco at the forecourts etc, and I dont know if that would really happen.....

sorry to drift a bit but its not really watered down. they just use the same tanker for deisel then go back and use it for petrol, etc. so it mixes and feels like shite stuff. or so i'm told.......

The cheapest is only going to be a penny or two cheaper. I think unless the cheapest is very local to you, its probably going to cost you more to go and fill up at the cheapest then it will at your local station as it will mean extra miles to get there.

I suppose its a catch 22 really. Is it honestly enough of a saving to warrant a longer journey to fill up.
