    Try http://www.keepmoving.co.uk though be aware it may use a similar data source to petrolprices.com.

    Did you check the date that was displayed for the prices on the website. There has been a recent drop in fuel prices which might explain the difference

    Yup, its £1.01 at Sainsburys near me.
  • i guess there is a delay and is only as good as the people updating the data

    As a guide though it usally is correct as the which station is the cheapest, just not very accurate to the actual price
