Limavady is still a decent drive to the border about 20 or 21 miles to muff or Bridgend. By the time you’ve driven there you probably burnt more than you saved unless you’re going to Derry anyway.

There's a bit of that no doubt!
There's probably also a fair bit of smaller places taking a hit as a promotion drive or whatever that the bigger chains don't do.
Over here there seems to be a bit of "cross border trading" going on too? All chains might not have access to that, no idea.
But certainly profiteering too

192.9 and 198.9 for unleaded and diesel respectively at the Maxol in Broughshane. Hasn’t moved for what must be a couple of weeks.
Noticed Tesco Ballymena down a whole 2p to 197.9 now....

I was in Ballymena and noticed the price of Tesco yesterday. Sainsburys just down the road was 193.9.
I filled the Ateca yesterday morning at Nicholls in Ballymoney for 188.9

Would Nicholls not be one of the bigger wholesalers in the country? Supply all the farm contractors diesel around me at generally the best rates. Probably how they can justify it being so much cheaper.
I’d imagine everyone else is running out the higher price fuel before bringing it down. Or recouping losses from holding prices back previously…. Or flat out creaming some extra £££

Go Petrol in Great Victoria Street Belfast was 179.9 for unleaded today.
Yes, thanks for that, filled the workhorse there this evening, 14p per litre cheaper than BP in Glengormley. The Maxol down the road from this have moved to £1.849 too I noticed - just shows what they can do when they have to!
