LPG costs ??

<< < (2/3) > >>

blackbob:
the garage i use has a discount card starts at 1p up to 10p per litre adding 1p per fill up so more u use the cheeper it gets  :lol:  8)

Well, I don't believe the 4p per litre figure, since I used to have a contract with a local LPG supplier, and they used to sell at 35.4p, and revealed that they were buying in bulk at 19.4p plus duty, and it worked out at around 22p.

That was eight years ago, and duty rises on LPG haven't exceeded 10p a litre in that time.

Even if the bulk cost works out at a 32p a litre, the rest is pure profit, don 't believe all the crap they tell you, they want their pound of flesh.

hairyasswelder:
Still pay 39.9 at local-ish independant, 47.9 at Jet garage in Belper but have seen 52.9  :cry:

I wasn't sucked in by their excuses as I used to run self service petrol stations years ago so know they are jumping on the bandwagon. All I can say is they won't get my money, I would run on unleaded to the next place (if I ran out of LPG)  just on principal.   
 They can say "Stand and Deliver" but it will fall on deaf ears...  [-X

i think it is to do with the Mixture of Propane / Butan, our local stations are 51p and an independent is 39 but theres is not a mix of butane / propane it is one or the other depending on what they have in stock
