Price of fuel in Co.Wexford..Where's the cheapest/dearest fuel?

Cantona's Collars · 2010-07-02 20:24:19

Is it just me or has the price of petrol and diesel been creeping up over the past week in Enniscorthy? A certain garage (won't name it YET) has had 3 increases in price in a week,it's gone from 132.9 to 137.9 in that time.Was in Waterford yesterday and petrol was 129.9 a litre. There was uproar before when it was claimed…

Was told that petrol was 142.9 in one place in Carlow.

can assure you it wasnt 142.9 in Carlow. The maxol on the Dublin road had it cheaper than Diesel for a spell last week at around 1.52, but it was for a day or 2. certainly not 142.9 anyway. seems to be on average around 1.55 around Carlow, and Diesel 1c cheaper.

Haven't seen petrol as low as €1.42 for a long time. One drawback to the reducing price of fuel is, it gives Noonan the excuse to slap more excise duty on it.

Theres a service station in New Ross where petrol has increased by 2c to 1.56 p/l.

When you look at the signage , the diesel price is shining bright , but the petrol price is faded .

Same at every station in Enniscorthy,it's around 156.9 in Wexford. 160.9 in Ballymurn & that used to be one of the cheapest places for fuel,strangely though,the price of diesel hasn't risen.

Diesel is only 150.9 in Ferns & Camolin, yet its over 154.9 in Enniscorthy?
Its a pity Enniscorthy is always more expensive as it encourages people to shop outside the town.

I continue to advise the public to be very careful in looking at the "price" only when buying all fuels- petrol/diesel/home heating oil.

Yet you wouldn't tell me by PM who you suspected of selling dodgy home heating oil :rolleyes:

Maxol on Arklow Road, Gorey, refused to honour a genuine Maxol money off voucher today, even though they're on the list of participating stations. Just another reason to avoid these rip off merchants.

You'd need to be sure what station you're talking about before you accuse them of scamming. Maxol is in Fahy's Cross, Ardcavan.

the one in the village in castlebridge, on the bend
