Central heating oil price

Savememoney

Do you know this?
As we needed some more heating oil I went on to boilerjuice.co.uk, as when prices were sky high they allowed me to have smaller quantities than our normal oil supplier. Earlier this week I checked the latest price on boilerjuice and it was 36.5p/lt for 1000lt, yesterday I went to order some oil only to find the price was 39.2p/lt so I decided to have a ring round some local suppliers. After 15 mins on the phone I had got the price per litre down to 34p . As boilerjuice are supposedly giving me a good price I have to question if they are doing this totally for their own benefit rather than sharing the benefit with their customers.

The moral to the story is always ring round a few suppliers

I always use Boilerjuice as a guide price, and then ring a list of suppliers, and play one off against another.

I always better the Boilerjuice price by at least 2p/litre.
