    You are wrong, that's not price fixing. Time to find something else to complain about. :)

    bet you don't complain when one place puts their price down and everyone else follows, do you?

    You have a choice of buying it from morrisons or travelling elsewhere to get it cheaper. Everyone else is in the same boat as you OP in trying to find cheaper petrol. I use petrol prices to find the cheapest petrol and its been ok.

    "Profiteering" as a term rather bothers me. Businesses are in the business of profiteering, it's redundant as a concept.

    If their petrol costs too much, why don't you buy a bit of land and sell petrol yourself for 4p cheaper.

    That's competition. If there is no competition, they'll charge what they like. Much as you don't give away your time for free.
