I am happy to fill my car with petrol in Great Barr.

Somebody told me to fill my car in Sutton Coldfield as I will be amongst a better class of person. The person said people in Great Barr are oiks. As I am going past for 3p a litre less I will fill my car with the oiks.

Don't leave the key in it then or you'll never see it again.

I would never fill my car with petrol there. It would be a complete and utter disaster. It runs on diesel.

It would cost me far too much in petrol to drive there.  I'll stick to my local garage. I get Nectar points there too.

I think I mentioned before but fuel in the King's Lynn area is consistently 4p or 5p less per litre than at home so in summer my refuelling always gets done there in mostly at an Asda station. As my car goes well over 600miles on a tank even in towns and my travels are curtailed over winter I usually only fill up once or twice at home.


5p a litre may only amount to £3 on a fill but if you saw 3 shiny pound coins in the gutter would you pass them by?

The price at my local Morrison has dropped 10p in the last month. Currently 120.9

They are giving 10p off a litre this week as well - bonus!

We get our petrol at Morrisons.

I usually go to Tesco in Llandrindod, and I've just checked the mileage from mine to Great Barr,
164 mile round trip so it's worth the few extra pennies to buy local
