There's three different filling stations with three different fuel companies near me, their prices are all exactly the same to within a tenth of a cent, competitive area my eye. If the price of oil was rising, fuel prices at the pumps would be increased the same day.

It's 25 years since I had a connection with the industry when my girlfriend at the time had a fuel station. After 3 years, she could not sell enough coffee to make a living. Yep, coffee sales dictate your profit. So let me educate you (I don't comment about farming because I don't know the costs) Diesel 43c duty 6c carbon tax 10-12c refinery costs (sort of like turning wheat into bread) 7-8c distribution costs from refinery to huge tanks, to trucks, to fuel stations and the back office costs 7-8c retail costs - rent, rates, insurance, staff, utilities, etc. That's about 75c Vat is an extra 17c That's 92c before you add the cost of the raw oil. At last weeks av price of $45 for Brent oil (this is what is used in Europe) and 159 litres per barrel, the raw oil element is about 26c (euro) +vat = 32c So the forecourt price this weekend / early next week should be €1.24 on average. Some will be lower because they want you to buy coffee (av profit almost €2 on a cup), some will be higher due to expensive rent locations. Guess what? Prices dropping to under €1.24 in many stations as we speak. Now, show me another industry that you can work out the full cost breakdown by a few Google searches? BTW, this week's drop to av. $35 for Brent oil will see another 7-8c come off at end of next week / early following week. So you still think price gouging? Try operating a station. You're in for a very very big disappointment.

Isn't it amazing that the three filling stations near me have exactly the same prices for all their fuel products all the time . They all change at the same time also even though they're supposed to have three different suppliers. The competition authority should have a good look at this area but we all know how useless they are. BTW i don't need you to educate me about anything.
