Trying to beat the high fuel prices

Posted on 29 January 2011 Posted in Gripes & Groans 2 Comments

Petrol and diesel prices seem to be spiralling ever higher. I do silly mileages for my work so I’m always on the lookout for the cheapest diesel I can get.

Some time ago I came across PetrolPrices.com, a useful price comparison website for fuel.

Put in your post code or town and your choice of fuel and they return a list of the local prices, allowing you to plan where to buy your fuel to get the best deal .They get their data on fuel prices in individual service stations from fuel card transactions allowing them to keep up to date.

Below is a live feed from the site of their overall figures for the whole of Dorset.

    Watch out for fuel protests over the next days and weeks. We can’t go on with price hikes like this.

    Saw this on Yahoo. Will believe it when I see it!

    19p a litre ‘petrol’ in development

    A British company has invented artificial petrol that emits no greenhouse gases and could cost as little as 19p per litre at the pumps.
