If you are anything like me, and I don’t mean a two ton, one million year old money obsessed dinosaur, then you will be confused as to why petrol from one filling station costs up to 5p a litre more than one that is 50 yards down the road, and you will be annoyed as it seems to be taking up an increasing amount of your monthly finances.
Well, I have just been looking at the good old Motley Fool website, and noticed a link to a really useful moneysaving site – Petrolprices.com. There has been little help in determining the cheapest petrol prices in your local area since the closure of the AA Petrolbusters site last year, however this new site allows you to do just that. All you need to do is type in your postcode, and it will search for the cheapest unleaded, diesel, LRP, super and LPG in the area.
Although it cannot get rid of the extortionate rate of tax that accounts for about 70% of the actual amount you have to pay at the pump, at least you can help to reduce your contributions to Mr Browns coffers, and keep the money for yourself.
And if you are a two ton, one million year old money obsessed dinosaur, please get in touch, there aren’t many of us around, we need to stick together.
