Don't buy your petrol in £'s !!

The last time I looked the petrol station had a fixed price per litre, so any attempt to only buy in litres would end up forcing you to buy in pounds at the same time.I've stopped buying my petrol in £'s at the pump and started buying it in litres. Sound strange? Heres what I mean.
I'll let you into a little known trade secret: any petrol you don't use one week can be stored in the tank and used the next week.Happy chappy0 -

I have recently bought a 2.0 diesal astra , i filled up when the light was just about to come on cost me £53.99 at 122.9 per liter i am dead on half a tank left and the odometer says i have done 250 miles

I fill, empty, fill, empty too.
My full tank is about the same as yours.

I've heard from someone that if you hop lots of times whilst your filling your petrol tank that you can get quite a lot of extra free fuel each time. Its all to do with the time vortex paragon and by continuously hopping, you send out an electrical impulse which confuses the dwarf that lives inside of each petrol pump and hands pumps the fuel for you. Thats why there is always a delay when you take the nozzle out of the holder - the dwarf has to wake up and get ready by the internal pump.

I've had to wait a long time for some pumps to start... do you think it's a girl dwarf and she needs to touch up her lippy?If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got.

I've heard that if you have a flux capacitor in your car (especially if it's a DeLorean) you can go back to the '50's and get really cheap fuel!!If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got.
