Another LPG price hike!!!

Post by Cruz »

My local calor centre was 36.5p before the budget rise.

Then it went to 39.9p. OK I thought as it's still sub 40p and that better than most.

Went today and it's 42.9p!!!!!!!!

That's over 6p in a month. 27p a gallon!!!!

Now cost me nearly £2.50 more to fill up

I know it's still cheap compared to the dreaded petrol but come on!

And you think the gov gives a s h 1 t......
Lets face it, it aint never gonna come down and the price of oil will force it up as well...

50eurocent in Holland, about the same in Belgium and 65-75 in France... petrol is about 1.34 in France, but 1.50 in Holland and 1.48 in Belgium...

We paid 40€c this Summer in Belgium ... at Wetteren Drongen services where the gearbox broke up :cry: I still filled up though. Presumably they've put it up Si ? It was 36€c the year before :D

My conversion's long paid for ... I'll start crying when gas reaches £1.04 a litre, 'til then I'm still saving AND the van runs better on gas anyway.

Paid £.539/ltr yesterday Haldon service center on Telegraph Hill near Exeter yesterday.... but had a $.04/liter coupon. £.52 to £.56 per liter is as good as it gets down here now. Closeest lpg is 3 miles to council pump... which may be open and working or not. Next is 11 miles, then 18 miles to next.

Still alot better then £1.01-1.06 for petrol or £1.05-1.09 diesel. It's amazing how much cheaper diesel is on continent the here in UK.

  • 45p per litre at the M56 services (Jn 14) BUT petrol is £1.03 per litre.
    The services are Shell and are about just less than a mile from STANLOW refinery.
