free petrol
ok here's a good way for you to put one over those oil giants in a very tight fisted way:
After you have filled your car at the fuel pump it is often possible through careful trigger control (depending on the calibration of the pump) to add another 1/100th of a litre without the price going up at all. Hey presto - a free 1/100th of litre!
It doesn't sound like much but if you use as much fuel as me you soon get a free litre and if everyone did it there would be a lot of free litres flowing into cars across the country!
