Petrol prices

[goldstone]

When the oil price was on the way up, petrol first hit one pound a litre about the same time that oil hit 100 dollars a barrel.

Now it's come all the way down to 80 dollars, but petrol has only just nudged below a pound a litre again.

Bloody rip-off.

Sterling has fallen against the dollar heavily since then.

Rightly or wrongly I don't trust supermarket petrol and only ever use Shell, BP or Texaco

Its the same stuff, the supermarkets don't have there own refineries, they just buy it off the "named" ones where you buy it from.

By the sounds of it, it will be down towards 90p by the end of the month.

Why should they put the prices down? You've all proved you'll pay £1.25 £1.30 a litre so what incentive ha ve they got to reduce them? They'll just knock a few pence off and then pocket the difference whilst fobbing you off with stories of exchage rate fluctuations, refining costs, delivery costs, etc.

Nationalise 'em that's what I say.

Wrongly.

Possibly but strange how it was mainly supermarkets that had the problem with contaminated petrol that fecked your engine about a year ago. Or have I got that wrong as well?

The suppliers constantly buy and sell petrol to each other to iron out peaks and troughs in their stocks as petrol is expensive to store. I think it all gets mixed up which is no problem as it's all of the same quality. Do you only trust certain suppliers for your domestic gas?
