    So fill up now if we want to pinch the pennies?

    No tbh the signs are that it will start falling again from Friday, yes fill up anyway as its at a very low pricepoint anyway so your still ahead !

    Its very volatile, we only get half a days notice of increases or decreases

    I must admit that I thought peak oil had happened in 2010 when prices kept rising and rising, but recent events have proven me wrong.
    It must be remembered that the gross cost before tax is approximately 40-45 cents per litre - so we are nowhere near peak oil yet. Adjusted for inflation I would say that we currently are at a cheap ebb (pretax).
    We may have peaked already or the peak may well be in near future. We will know that it happened about a decade after the peak.

    I think the question is, where is conphil?

    Conaco-Philips, that's the refinery in Whitegate, cork

    TBH, I don't know what I'm looking at apart from a list of numbers and names.
    Ex VAT prices available where, and to whom?
    Price the average station pays per litre to fill their forecourt tank?
    Price at mystery location X before distribution costs?
    Price ( before VAT) the average punter would get if he went to mystery location X with a suitable container?

    In Florida at the moment. Regular unleaded is $1.96 a gallon.

    Works out at 0.45 Euro per liter. Near enough to one third the price of here.

    no harm if the rest followed suit.

    Esso (Dolans) on the Clara Road have been matching them decrease for decrease the last month, can't see them being able to go this low.

    Something tells me the Applegreen price will be gone back up 5c/l tomorrow morning.

    I wonder how long this will last for, now that the arse has fallen out of the euro, in contrast to the dollar.

    but do people have any inkling if the prices are going to keep dropping for another 2 days OR 2 weeks OR 2 months etc ?

    If it were 45 cent a litre and tax wasn't so bad I'd buy a tank! It's more the road tax that keeps me in a 1.2 litre now, I don't use much petrol, it's over a month since I filled up and I still have a 1/4 of a tank left, it is fun seeing how much it's gone down between fills.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,023 ✭✭✭gsi300024v


    I'd 2 3 litres back in the day! petrol, at same time, v6 and straight 6, ah I miss the them times, both rwd with lsd, my tire budget was up their with petrol budget.
