    If you brim a 60 litre tank, you're going to save 3 quid. Worth it if it's not busy, but if things start to get ridiculous it's just not worth the hassle.

    Pumps.ie did a study over a year and found prices rose and fell within a similar timeframe based on movements in the world oil price. Data was from over 300 stations, do was very comprehensive.

    However your own mind plays tricks with you - the brain remembers and notices negatives quicker than it notices positives. That's human nature

    Prices in and around Galway City are, and always have been, suspiciously similiar. No more than a 2c difference mostly apart from the unbranded ones which should be steered well clear of for obvious reasons.
