Where Is Petrol Typically Cheapest?

Prices vary significantly by location:
The CMA found fuel prices can differ by more than 10p per litre within just a few miles, making a local comparison essential before you fill up.

Tips to Always Pay Less
Fill up midweek:
Petrol prices tend to rise towards the weekend as retailers respond to higher demand. Filling up on a Tuesday or Wednesday can save a few pence per litre.

Check before long journeys:
Motorway service stations charge significantly more than supermarkets or town-centre stations. A quick check before you leave can save several pounds on a full tank.

Set a price alert:
