    I read this on another forum and I think it would be good to help each other out down here and mention petrol stations around Kerry and what they are selling their petrol/diesel at today, any-day.

    to get the ball rolling: Topaz on ParkRoad in Killarney currently at 102.9 down from 108.9 lastweek


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,731 ✭✭✭11811


    Kellihers and Topaz in Manor Tralee are 99.9 also O'Connors down the road

    Kellihers and Topaz in Manor Tralee are 99.9 also O'Connors down the road

    Kellihers, AKA Kelloil have three outlets in Tralee all @ 99.9 for petrol, I think diesel was cheaper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,793 ✭✭✭oeb


    The cheapest I found in Tralee today was 100.9 (The little place near argos), in Killarney the cheapest I saw was 101.9 (The place next to McDonalds). I hear tesco in Killarney was 99.9 yesterday too, but I have no idea about today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,630 ✭✭✭dh0661


    :mad: Today Kelloil is €1.03.9 diesel --- €1.05.9 petrol, from 99.9c yesterday.

    :) Topas in Monavalley still 99.9c for both.

    Petrol was 99.9c in Tescos in killarney today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,689 ✭✭✭Vain


    Centra manor 99.9 Great gas near horans were 98.9 last weekend


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,424 ✭✭✭440Hz


    O'Connors in Tralee was 99.9 all weekend while Kellihers and Topaz up the road were 10X.XX. They spotted it soon enough though as KellOil etc were all 99.9 as I was leaving Tralee yesterday.

    Always happy to give my business to O'Connors. They drop the cost when they can, and a lovely friendly family based service. Even if KellOil were 90.9 I wouldn't go there!

    I read today that parts of county Cork are selling petrol & diesel
    @ €0-89.99 :).
    I hope that all our fuel retailers are reading this, and will follow their lead.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,221 ✭✭✭RichyX


    The station in Glenflesk and the Killarney Tesco had petrol @ 94.9 today.
    I'm afraid I didn't notice their diesel prices.

    Of course. A completely innocent typo. I would never indicate that a certain tralee filling station is ummm not the best.

    Pity about that, so I must be the only person around here thinks that actual filling station (all three of them) is.

    They always seem to be on the other side of the road anytime I approach them. :rolleyes:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,793 ✭✭✭oeb

    I do like this ! :D

    Sheahans at Glenbeigh have an electric sign boasting the cheapest fuel in Kerry but my wife is driving this week and I have my hands over my eyes most of the time. I'll post the price when I can see it. It's a long way for most of you, I do realise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,630 ✭✭✭dh0661


    94.9c for both unleaded and diesel in Topaz Monavalley today 10/01/09. Cheap enough for unleaded I think, I've seen it @ 96.9c in other places around town.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,318 ✭✭✭✭carchaeologist

    Sign up for a fuel card if you're a regular commuter -payment monthly by direct debit - you get texts when prices are lower -and receive a fixed
    price ,and you might get a few free car washes thrown in too.:)

    Tesco do a deal don't they if you do a big weekly shop ?

    Hubby reckons Tesco petrol is crap, along with Kelloil and Topaz. He says that gets much better mileage from maxol.
    He also says he gets much better mileage when I'm not driving his car :rolleyes:.

    BTW, I was in Killarney today - €102.9 per litre at the roundabout near Lidl.
    RIP OFF:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34 Orna


    Heard about the low grade petrol thing before but is that not also an allergy to waiting in line , no bumper to bumpers in the maxols round Killarney I can comment .

    Its really down to driving technique and regular services to squeeze those extra drops innit !

    As for the big flashing signs saying cheapest petrol , its illegal not to display the price and thats what you should notice first not after you have pulled in with petrol cap in hand .

    Tip - top up before you head to Dingle !

    I've heard several claims that Tesco & Kelloil may be substandard.
    The head of Topaz has stated that they use higher quality additives to improve the mileage when using their fuel.

    Every time I've work out the mileage I'm getting it's 50MPG based on a tank full, no matter where I've filled up.

    prices are def creeping up!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,127 ✭✭✭✭kerry4sam


    Both diesel and petrol are sitting around the 99.9 mark in all petrol stations in Killarney at the moment...keeping steady but the stations could seriously drop another few cents of it to be honest


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 Myhairspray


    its amazing how the prices have come down!

    Thought that myself a few weeks back, passing through Killarney on my way to Cork. I think it was €1-03.9 for unleaded :confused:.
    I don't think it has went over a euro in Tralee for a good while now.

    Prices around town are, more often than not, cheaper at the weekends.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,630 ✭✭✭dh0661


    Passing through Killarney today petrol @ €1-04.9 :eek:

    The petrol stations in Killarney are just disgraceful at the moment with their pricings. I mean, if their counterparts in towns like Tralee & Castleisland can reduce their prices and still make a profit, why not here also.

    In saying that though I drove to Cork yesterday and all en-route to the City were the same prices as Killarney

    The Topaz on the Cork side of Killarney used to always be the cheapest around, now it's usually the most expensive! :mad:
