Tesco petrol rip off

Went to my local tesco on tuesday, diesel was £1.38.9 litre, expensive enough I know, Wednesday morning it had gone up to £1.43.9! The only thing I can why they have done this is because they have the offer of 10p a litre off if you spend £60 in store! Talk about ripping off customers but it is an easy way to make money, not from me anymore though refuse to shop or buy petrol there again.

    They have probably calculated by charging that price the 10p off will cost them £0, I filled up in Asda yesterday at 3.2p cheaper than Tesco. Even my local Esso is 2p cheaper than T.

    In my experience Tesco always do this with their petrol offers.
