RedditchJay Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 Just been to my local Shell garage in Cannock who has derv on his board at £1.27 ppl yet his price at the pumps is £1.25.4ppl, he said he hasn't bothered to put the duty on yet ! ! ! ! and is doing a roaring trade at the moment...... guess the QTY of fuel through the pumps will make up for the 2p per litre he is looising on duty ......... Just filled up the car and was happy {considering it is £1.34ppl in Redditch} Quote
mikef Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 Wow! That is cheap. It surprises me that more filling stations do not do this in the same way that many of the larger companies are "absorbing" the VAT increase. Word soon gets round and he will certainly increase his throughput. Quote
RedditchJay Posted January 5, 2011 Author Posted January 5, 2011 I went at 10.00am and the que was 10mins long.... its been rammed all day and he has said sod it... volumes are better for him as people are buying fags, papers, sweets etc etc as they have a few pennies left through buying his cheaper derv..... good for Shell and the garage I say Quote
