    they seem to be cutting 2p off fuel every month. So according to my calculation petrol should cost 50p a litre by now.

    So many unanswered questions make this look like a publicity stunt. Like, when does this cap end? Is it permanent? What happens if wholesale prices go up?

    Could have sworn they used to sell petrol by the gallon, and it was about 99p.

    Showing my age here - I can remember the outrage when petrol hit the magical £1 per gallon mark :o Mind you, I can also remember when beer was significantly less than £1 a pint.

    Sheesh, we get this ridiculous story yet again. Prices go up, prices do down, MSE puts out a "news story". I made an official complaint last time and got a reply from "MSE Andrea" basically telling me off.

    Asda diesel is the same price now it was 12 months ago I think, and in that time we must have had at least 6 of these "stories".

    It's click bait, but they're unlikely to admit that ;)

    Come on keep up ...........

    That is so they can now announce a 2p cut in the fuel price. :D

    The thing is MSE now receives revenue from the supermarkets so they have to play ball, how else would MSE Paloma get paid!

    ASDA must be paying the site to post this SPAM....

    :)

    Why no threads when the price goes up?
