PJ of Hildisvik Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Up 5 pence in the week before the 5p fuel rebate.You couldna make it up .All the postering from Tavish and Carmichael won't make a difference, in the end if you want mainland fuel prices with the benefits of supermarket schemes, Tesco 10p off when you spend £60 in the shop , and now Morrisons 15p off, you have to live on mainland UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Now is the time for Tesco to get their act together and fight for the right to have fuel pums on Shetland, they could then offer the discount given south and fetch their own fuel thus kicking the arrs of the GB fuels barons!

glipper Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Its an absolute disgrace the way people in the Islands are been treated with this fuel rip off .. Is it any wonder people go and start riots when you have to put up with the likes of this day light robbery..The sooner there's petrol pump outside tescos the better if thet ever happened the rip off merchants would soon take there prices down..

GT Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Support the Fair Fuel campaign and e-mail the price at your filling station URGENT CHALLENGE PLEASE. The media has asked us to find the most expensive filling station in the country. Can you send me the price per litre for diesel and petrol of your filling station plus location and postcode if possible with brand of fuel too.

lerwick Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Its very interesting GB fuels states they make 2.6p per litre on their wholesale sales , this watered down amount of profit might be quite a tidy sum . Being the biggest retailer of fuel in Shetland also i dont think its time to take a collection up for them yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biglad Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I f Tesco start selling fuel with their 10p discount so be it.Stuff everybody else. Haha what a positive comment that is........and so short sighted. Do you actually drive or just catch the bus by the way? As Dratsy says things will definently go tits up after Tesco get their pumps!

PJ of Hildisvik Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 @ Biglad, we commute 72 miles a day, times of work don't coincide with the so called bus service or should we cycle to Lerwick Charity starts at home mate, it's you who needs to go to Specsavers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crofter Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 How is Tesco going to get their cheap petrol up to Shetland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest posiedon Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 ^ Tesco don't sell cheap petrol, they are able to reduce the price of petrol due to the extra pennies they put onto their in store products.There is a basket of groceries currently on display in Aith community Co-op.Tesco £11.06 (plus petrol cost) Aith Co-op £10.05 for the same products.My maths aint brilliant but, spend £60 in Tesco and get 10p off a litre, so say you get 40 litres that's a saving of £4, get your groceries at your local shop and save £6 on your shopping plus the cost of the petrol to get you to Tesco and back. Tesco think we are all mugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
