Two cents here 126 to 129 in three days for tractor fuel.

Gas price for bottles is government controlled with prices changed every two months.

Cost of living is going to free fall again. Licence to print money.
I make that 3 cents, El Varche  ;D

2 , 3 cents! Been a long day. Si  ;D

You've always got to stick your 2 cents worth in!  ::)   ;D
The biggest joke on mankind is that computers have started asking humans to prove that they aren't a robot.

Same garage today 150. 20% approx increase in less than a week. Fertiliser will go up too so expect more food inflation.
The mainstream outlets like Shell and BP were 170 to 180. How long before a litre is 2 euros?

What's happening in the UK?

Same here, up 10p most places and HGVs queuing into petrol stations where you wouldn't normally see them. No movement on petrol though - so I do wonder if its a UK demand issue i.e. big hauliers pulling deliveries forward.

What does 'wash' mean in this context?

I'm not that concerned about the price of fuel rising, we've seen it all before. I am concerned about running short, that brings out the worst of driver's behaviour.

Not petrol prices, but our heating oil has gone from around 58-60p  a litre for the last year or so, to around 120-150p a litre  now. :o :o :o :o

It's just crazy.

Who should I blame? ::)
