    Why do ASDA always seem to do this just after I've just filled up? :)
    If you fold it in half, will an Audi A4 fit in a Citroen C5? :)

    Why do ASDA always seem to do this then a week later start creeping the price up again until the next PR stunt.

    I'm tempted to think we should all start clicking the spam button on threads like this ;).

    The Sainsburys near Costco Watford is always about 2p lower than locally, so I just fill up whenever I go to Costco, which saves me money as well.

    When you are super money pinching, you have no free will, because you will always act in the cheapest possible manner.

    The only time that Asda is cheapest around here is the 2 or 3 weeks that follow MSE doing their PR for them like this, and again this time it's only 0.2 pence a litre.

    5 of my last 6 tankfuls were abroad, where diesel used to be about 12 to 18 pence a litre cheaper than here, but the gaps seem to have increased. Price in Luxembourg today is equal to £1.03 for diesel, France and Belgium from £1.10

    Please bring some back and distribute it to MSE members :beer:

  • Went by the local Tesco garage today. They have reduced the price (I think by 1p) so now it is the same as Sainsbury's :T
