Thinking of getting a GE Cashback credit card. It gives you a 3% cashback for fuel purchases and main supermarket groceries spend. Should save a few quid over the course of a year.

Scroll down to the bottom of "Step 1" on the link for details.

I found out today that our local petrol station hikes the prices by 3p every weekend. Last weekend it was 97.9p, then from Monday it was 94.9p, and today it's gone back up to 97.9p. Scum bags. Evil or Very Mad

A lot of places do this from Friday to Monday as this is when most people fill up their cars for the following week, so people put more in and increase the profits more than in the week if people only put in a tenner.

tossers.

Our local ASDA has the price at 92.9p a litre, Tesco's has the same. Looks like the prices are starting to fall again.

93.9 a litre at my local Tesco and Waitrose

If the silly prices bother you, just practice economical riding. Good for your licence and your wallet Thumbs Up
