WILF 47,497 Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 It's a sterling equivalent of about 80p here and it's cheaper than petrol (which is how it used to be in England).......so the question is, how can it be cheaper in Ireland than in England ? Just shows how much they are pulling your pants down 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pesky1972 5,334 Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 The dropping fuel prices is welcome news to most, but crude trading at $37bbl paints a very bleak outlook for North Sea oil, and puts tens of thousands of jobs in the firing line. And it may get a lot worse before it gets any better. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Load of bollocks, millions of road users fill up using supermarkets. I don't see millions of cars breaking down every week! I've used supermarket fuel for years (petrol and diesel) with no issues. Nor do I know anyone else who has had a issue out down to using cheap fuel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
