Searched for one and couldn't find one. Might be beneficial now that fuel companies seen to be making up the prices as they go along! Let's support those who are supporting us with the lower prices?

Ballynahinch tonight

Diesel was £1.47 this at the Nicholl unmanned station in Ballymoney this afternoon. Its normally 3-4p cheaper per litre than the others in Ballymoney.

149.9 for both. But it jumped from 142.9 overnight on Thursday to 146.9 and then by lunchtime Friday it was 149.9

Yet I’m sure it’s the same fuel in the tanks from one day to the next unless they go through it so quickly that it needs replenished after half a day 🤔

I use the petrol prices app and try to update it regularly with local prices, would be helpful if more people were on it and updated prices as able

Really well
Most will be around the same now. I pass probably 10 plus stations heading to the other half's, you'd be lucky to see 2p of a difference. Which in most cases over say 50lt isn't much so it doesn't pay to shop around.

I haven't seen one where it's a decent saving to warrant driving out of the way for.

Fair difference between Bangor and Ballynahinch, up to 7p at times

Have you seen Trolans?! They have the backlight off the pricing board so you don’t see it until you’re at the pumps.

7p dearer than anywhere else in the town!

I haven't bought fuel there in ages as they are always a good bit more expensive. That's a ridiculous difference. I would use Biestys the odd time.

It's an app, actually lots of users around Belfast who keep it reasonably up to date. Would have been able to save a good 5-8p a litre in diesel with it this time last year by checking it out.
What's it called? Or can you link to to the Google app store

It hasn't followed the jump yet imo
I cut 4 counties going to my oh and if there's a big difference it's never for long. I've passed ones at Holywood and came back a few hours later and it's went up.

Everything's a saving I get it but taken time factor plus driving if not passing the door all needs to factor in. We're going to get shafted sooner or later

Agree, I wouldn't go more than a couple of miles off course unless it was a good saving.
