matthew2005 you are kidding I hope ?
You don't really have petrol in wheelie bins in your kitchen and if so is it the garden waste, general waste, glass recycling or paper bin?

I listen to an american radio station in Oregon via the internet during the weekdays whilst at work.
Yesterday, the on the news they reported that the petrol went 'down' in price and the industry is stabalising.
I come home to the six o'clock news and hear more 'rip off Britain' stuff again. This government and media has a lot to answer for.
Interestingly, I just got tomorrow's bulk price at work (we buy by the tanker load.) The price jumped last Friday by 3p, but has since come back down by 2p and is sitting roughly where it was in the middle of August maybe half a pence higher.) So it appears the industry is indeed milking the hype as much as it can.0 -

I look at the NewsNow news feed on petrol/oil prices from time to time - it's not localised so you see a list of reports from various organisations, covering different countries, reporting falls/rises or predictions of falls/rises/trends.

There are sometimes some useful articles to be found - not always of course.0 -
The World price has fallen $5 or 7% since the high of the 30th August. :T So eventually the pump price may fall in-line :mad:
Where I live in Manchester the highest pump price i've seen is 95.9p whilst the average is 93.9p for unleaded, not even derv has gone over 98.9p
Perhaps the hype of the OP was just that goodwill HYPE anyhow like I care, whatever the price i'll always pay it as my 5 litre beast loves the stuff0 -
103.9p in Evesham, Worcs - 88.9p in Cannock, Staffs. No bloody continuity whatsoever.

Unleaded has just gone down and diesel too. Only 92p for diesel now, which is a relief. £1 a litre was getting scaryNO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!0
