Title: LPG Coventry/Birmingham
Post by: Entwood on 23 December 2009, 21:05:39
I'm in Meriden for Xmas and will be needing to fill up on 27th.

I've found Morrisson's, Small Heath will be open and selling LPG.... any locals know of anywhere cheaper, more convenient to M42 that will be open on 27th ??

:)

Hi Entwood, it is about the cheapest that will be open on the 27th, i think my usual place just off junction 5 of the M6 will be closed, but i can check for you when i go and fill up tomorrow if you'd like... :y

Small Heath is a bit of a way to go from Meriden....

Shell, Balsall Common sells LPG, dunno what price though but only a few miles from Meriden.

If its cheaper than Morrisons .. sure t'would be useful ..   :)

I can always go to Countrywide at Bromsgrove as I have an account/key ... but their prices have crept up a tad recently. I'm now paying 56.24 /litre with them. Asda Cardiff was 49.9 !!! So I'm looking at supermarkets when I can. Unfortunately none in Swidnod .. :(

Thanks

According to petrolprices.com

Morrisons, Small Heath    53.9
Shell, Corrida   55.9


http://www.petrolprices.com/members/?search=meriden&range=20&fueltype=7

don't know if non-members will get the info ..

and Morrisons is 13 miles from Meriden ... I reckon about 8 from the motorway, so only 16 miles extra...  :)
