    Eniskellen is expensive :(

    Blacklion in Cavan isn't bad and thought it might not be on your route, Belturbet is usually one of the cheapest places in the country

    Try pumps.ie, should be a good guide there. What are you driving? There's not many cars that wouldn't make it on one tank from Galway.

    Anywhere except for Galway is one easy answer ... ;)

    But the best prices you will find for fuel is in Ballindine, Co. Mayo.
    Coming from Galway, it's the 2nd station on your left.

    Happy driving.

    Your car must be thirsty!! Our car 1.4 fiesta diesel will do over 500 miles on a 40 ltr tank!

    sligo fuels down the quays are usually the cheapest here. and is a small detour off your route.

    He used a double negative in a sentence so they cancelled each other out...me thinks!

    many cars that wouldn't make it = thirsty car
    not many cars that would make it = thirsty car
    not many cars that wouldn't make it = long lasting car

    cancelling out the negatives: many cars would make it

    anyway for 3 hours of driving i would say you will be fine

    D,oh..my bad..lol

    Don't worry about it. Even if you find a garage 5c cheaper per litre, filling a 40 litre tank from empty will save you a massive €2. It's not worth the faff of altering your route.
