Cranfield Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 My local garage reduced the price of diesel by 2p a litre today, from 120.9 to 118.9, a move in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazguevara Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Garages always charge different prices depending on where they are, you always seem to pay a bit more generally when you're closer to motorways etc. I guess because the Team Valley one is pretty much right on the A1 they can get away with charging a bit more. Having said that it always seems a bit cheaper on the A55 compared to when you get further towards Caernarfon/Bangor, not sure if it's because there aren't as many garages so they can charge a little extra or whether it's to do with the extra delivery costs.
