Great to see the reduction of oil is reflected in the prices at the pumps. May also reduce further according to this article tgr.ph/1DJb3nw

The current crude oil price is not the price of the fuel at the pumps now.

What pisses me off is not the different prices between different supermarkets and firms but that for example one morrisons will be different to another morrisons 10 miles away

It's also due to the fact living in market Drayton they can charge 2p more per litre as shrewsbury or stoke are 20 miles away

Not to mention the fuel is bought on futures contracts. The current crude oil price is not the price of the fuel at the pumps now. That's just smoke and mirrors from the oil companies , they always increase the price of fuel when the price of oil rises , why do they need to do this if the price of crude oil is set at at a lower price due to previous futures contracts

So why on Dividy Road in about 1 1/2 miles it is 114.9/117.9 and 113.9? They are all ESSO stations.

But the fuel at the pumps today was purchased a long time ago. The aim is to buy various contracts to average out the price, so the change in crude oil price will be larger than the change at the pumps.

Its causing havoc in the north east of Scotland. Could be lots of job losses up there. Bet the SNP are glad they lost the independence referendum now!
