Deisel is around $1.46 a litre but there is a bit of variation depending on the day you buy it, and from which petrol station.It is cheaper on a Monday and Tuesday too.Fuel prices is a real hot topic here at the moment! :)

Unleaded was shown on tv at $1.46 down south yesterday. Fears prices may rise to $1.55 by end of next week because of new world crisis.

£1.96-£1.99?!? You've got to be kidding me! :eek:

It's around 96p in the Midlands, so why would it be nearly £2 in Dorset? :confused:
