Anybody got an up to date diesel at supermarket price for northern France please?
We generall go empty and fill up there but with exchange & Euro costs it may be better to fill up at 1.15 a litre in the uk.0 -
Hi, Wortle. Can't help you with Northern France, and there are no regular contributors here from those parts. But last Wednesday I paid 1.069€ for a litre of diesel at an Intermarche in Agen. But ... the sign on the huge board at the entrance said it was 1.095€.
So it would be a bit cheaper to fill up in France at those prices. And I keep hearing on the radio today that the price of fuel is soaring in the UK.Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. - Thomas Sowell, "Is Reality Optional?", 19930 -
Can I also point you in the direction of http://www.prix-carburants.gouv.fr? If you don't mind dealing with a bit of French, it's a very useful site where you can find local fuel prices for any location in France.Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. - Thomas Sowell, "Is Reality Optional?", 19930
