How you can save on fuel all year round Fill up at busy petrol stations - These stations buy more fuel and can take advantage of falling prices. “The big petrol stations have deliveries every day so they can change the price,” Arthur Renshaw, of petrol station analyst Catalist Experian, told The Mirror . “But a small petrol station in a village may have a delivery every couple of weeks.” Choose a big station - Stations buy their fuel on the wholesale market. Just as in any other negotiation, the big buyers are better able to strike a deal. Look for a cluster of stations - When several stations are close together, they are more likely to cut prices to tempt drivers in. “If you are in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, you have much less competition than in the centre of Manchester,” said Renshaw. Do your research - The website PetrolPrices.com allows you to compare prices in your area. It also lists the latest average prices, so you know if you’re being ripped off. Play the supermarket game - Supermarkets are competing on fuel prices along with everything else. When you’re shopping, keep an eye out for vouchers offering petrol discounts.
