Petrol and Diesel Rise Every day for Two Months-
Frightening Fuels Price Surges
Apologies for a few days of non posting, I’ve had a bug. A pretty virulent bug as it happens and it has laid me low. And blow me when I crawl out from under the bed sheets I find that petrol and diesel has increased in price every single day for the last 2 months. It’s enough to send me back to bed again. This is prices measured by one of the motoring organisations and is taken across all the supermarkets in the UK, Scotland doesn’t escape. Having Scottish oil brings no relief.
Insult to Injury
Measuring the prices since the end of March it seems that fuel has increased by more than 8 pence per litre at all the big 4 major supermarkets. Petrol is now more than 80 US dollars a barrel and what with the pound being weak just now it adds insult to injury. It was down at 50 USD on a little while ago. The current nasty high prices of £1.26 per litre for unleaded and £1.30 for diesel, highs were last seen in October 2014. This level of increase is apparently unprecedented.
Life’s Affordable Pleasures
Now all of this argues for very sensible use of the car and no heavy footed acceleration in the jalopy. We’ve just opted for a replacement car and it will have only 3 cylinders and a 999cc petrol engine, they reckon 60+ miles to the gallon. No one can afford such prices of fuel for long,. And so our commitment at James Pirie is to make shopping at home ever more enjoyable, viable and good value for you our valued customers.
