Took advantage of the 'low' prices (87.9p) to brim the Olds up, my wallet should recover from the experience in a few weeks

For anyone who lives in Wokingham, the Shell garage next to St Crispins is 84.9p!!!!

Acolyte · 20 Sep 2006 at 18:42

Wow hope they stay this low? Whats the reason for these lowe than normal prices?

Just price per barrel prices loweing too i guess?

el_dazza · 20 Sep 2006 at 18:43

Saw it down to 85.5 today.. liking it

schnipps · 20 Sep 2006 at 18:57

Why is diesel still relatively high though? Usually its 2p more a litre, now it seems stuck at 92.9-93.9 and unleaded seems to have gone down to 86.9.87.9, so its a good 6p a litre more

it always used to be noticeably higher in the first place though. *shrug*

86.9 here. Cheap yes. However not cheap enough to make a large difference.

Exactly

Supply and demand too, diesel simply doesn't sell as much as petrol

Chong Warrior · 20 Sep 2006 at 19:52

I was running very low on petrol the other on the motorway, pulled off at the services and saw the price @ 99.9

so I just put £5 in!

Just a couple of miles later and I pulled in at Sainsbury's for some 85.5 and filled her up

glad I did that, I'd have been gutted if I'd been lazy and just filled up at the services. A 15% saving isn't to be sniffed at on something like petrol.

Crude oil is down to $60 a barrel now

Kind of curious why it's suddenly dropped so much. The crisis in Iran is still the same, and as far as I know universal peace has not been called in the arab countries so why the sudden change since 2 weeks ago?

RoboCod · 20 Sep 2006 at 20:13

Sainsbury's: ul 85.9, super 88.9 :cool:

Jonners · 20 Sep 2006 at 20:35

86.9p/l at Shell, I plan on filling up tomorrow

Did read something earlier at work but can't remember what it said.
Iran has relaxed a bit and America has a lot of oil stockpiled.

Its good that the prices are going down but they arn't a massive saving. In average cases, probably a saving of £2-5 a tank.
