Yep, you heard right,

I don't know if you've seen the new but there is a discount card that looks likely to be released called the pipeline card, it will get you a discount of between 5-10p a litre on your petrol.

You can register on www.PipelineCard.org, this will get you a card in March/April time,

A major petrol retailer has agreed to the discounts if enough people register.

So come on register and we could get cheaper petrol.

Cheaper petrol = more miles + fun

You think it will make a difference?

I don't.

The main issue is with the tax, not the retailer profit margin.

I have, this is the latest email, from the 30th Jan:

Quote:
Dear Members

Just to let you know...

https://www.PipelineCard.org signed up it's 100,000th member over the
weekend. Well done everybody!

It will still be April or May before we can send cards out, but these
figures will help to give us the negotiating power that we need to get a
good discount for everyone.

Best wishes

Ben Scammell - Pipeline Card Founder

I've joined aswell. It's probably going to be some retailer that is no where near me.

It won't single out one retailer HerbalDayZ. All the petrol stations in the country are owned or supplied by 1 of 3 companies. They will have gone after one of these companies. If we're lucky it will be a place which runs a lot of supermarket petrol stations, as their petrol is cheaper anyway. Mr. Green

Petrol itself is actually really cheap. If you took the tax off the price of a litre of petrol it'd be about 20-30p...

It would be better to twist the governments arm (fat chance, I know) to lower the tax on fuel. It'll never happen though. Ever.

So in theory, they team up with 1 retailer to offer cheaper fuel to it's members. They may get 2-3p a litre off?

In reality, however much the discount it, it will be matched or beaten by other suppliers, supermarkets etc and will be a pointless exercise.

If it was going towards reducing tax on fuel it would work better, but discount from the retailer/supplier is pointless in the long run.
