The petrol my husband uses is high octane super unleaded and the garage with the cheapest near here is £6.50 per gallon US equivalent $8.70


My runaround takes unleaded 95... which at the cheapest station within 5 ,miles of us is currently Us equivalent... $8.10 per gallon...


but at many petrol garages you can pay much more, just depends where you buy it...

Our fuel is one of the most expensive in the world.. most of it goes in taxes to the govt...
 

Prices here have been holding at $2.09/gallon for the past couple of weeks...unusual with a major holiday coming up. Plus, Discover Card is giving an extra 10 cents/gallon off for any gas purchases between now and the end of March...so I'll put the gas on the Credit card, and pay $1.99/gal. That's the lowest I've seen in quite some time.
 

$2.46 my area..FL.
One thing good about this time of year is I don't have to buy alot of gas for my lawn mower. I get a break...but in the summer you can hardly go 2 weeks without mowing it grows so darn fast.
 
It's like certain grocery items we want. We don't even look at the price. But, we drive a hybrid, and are retired, so don't visit a gas station too often..........
 
In Ohio I paid 2.39/gallon. I flew to San Diego, picked up a rental car and paid 3.43 at a down town, close to the airport,gas station
 
We've been holding pretty steady between $2.20 and $2.30 all Winter....I gassed up yesterday for $2.23.

BTW...there is a growing movement in Washington to raise the Federal gas taxes for the first time in almost 25 years...to help pay for some much needed repairs to roads and bridges. Recently, there have been proposals, instead, to tax people on "Miles Driven". As time has passed, and cars have become far more fuel efficient, This, To Me, makes more sense than just raising the fuel tax. After all, a Toyota Prius, which might get 45 MPG, weighs as much, and does as much damage to the roads, as a regular mid-size car that gets 25 MPG.
 
Filled up today at $2.39 per gal. for regular unleaded.
