Fuel duty went up by.......
« on: 01 January 2011, 20:40:52 »

........0.75p. beginning today.

....so why is every petrol station still charging amounts ending in .9p.....was there any other reason to increase prices overnight? :-?

My local 'independent' put unleaded prices up by four (whole) pence last night to £141.9 !!!!!! :o

I was however, heartened to find that veggie-oil is still 72ppl at ASDA! 8-)

I feel for you Debs, having to pay that "rip off" price :(

I guess you pay for the privilege & the tourists don't help.

Shouldn't that be £0.075p? I read £0.75p when I opened the thread and couldn't believe it so searched google. Just to clarify for people who may be confused.  :)

Its £1.20.9 for petrol and £1.24.9 for diesel at my local Shell.

There is no £-sign in Debs post, so yes, 0.75p (three quarters of a penny)..
