    Diesel is currently at 129.9 while unleaded is 123.9.

    This is the cheapest it's been for a helluva long time shoppers!
    Opens at 7.30 weekdays til 8pm.
    Open weekends too.

    In case you don't know where it is it's the next left after Connaght Gold at Deepwater Quay.

    So it's a good sign that it's down since then.

    It has been consistently the cheapest in Sligo for months now.

    Hmm. I think so...
    There are two numbers against them in the Yellow Pages:
    9169552
    9160610

    I think they're called McPartland or something to that effect.

    Yes. They may be under McPartland in the Phone Book.

    This is the only place in Sligo that I buy petrol and it will be the only place until this cartel is abolished and other petrol stations lower their prices...have they not heard of competition.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,640 ✭✭✭Gillie


    This problem is not just in Sligo!

    Ever seen the prices in Campus in Claregalway?

    Or Tuam?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,797 ✭✭✭bobcar61


    To be honest I have never noticed the prices down there.

    Although I have noticed the prices in Claremorris/Ballindine area.With their being a Tesco petrol station in Claremorris,fellow petrol stations have followed in lowering prices


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,663 ✭✭✭JoeyJJ


    Another good thing if Tesco get the go ahead for Carrowroe they would probably have tesco petrol would help drive down prices no end. Its handy too you get points on your clubcard.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,589 ✭✭✭Hail 2 Da Chimp


    Tesco petrol FTW. They usually have offere where, if you spend €50 in store you get a few pence of every litre you buy.

    Yes, just had a delivery of Kerosene. It cost 83 cents per litre, including VAT.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,762 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Any updates in prices here folks. I placed an order earlier today for kerosene - €740 for 1000 litres


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,640 ✭✭✭Gillie


    Haven't a clue muffler but here is the number for Sligo Fuels.
    They are the cheapest for Unleaded and Diesel so maybe they're cheap when it comes to oil?
    0719169552
    0719160610


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,762 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Cheers Gillie. I doubt if they would deliver up to Stranorlar in any event but I have my order booked for delivery tomorrow anyhow.

    I was just interested to see how prices here compare to Sligo.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,907 ✭✭✭bennyc


    74cent a litre for home heating oil is not too bad at all compared to a few months back.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,640 ✭✭✭Gillie


    He's a Donegal Man muffler so you can trust him!

    I was down there today getting some petrol (119.9 btw). Their home heating oil is €755 for 1000 litres. Two weeks ago it was €800.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,849 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    Which is the cheapest place around Sligo to provide home heating oil?

    Also do any of them provide a few weeks credit?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭darealtulip

    Just got petrol out in Daveys in Calry for 1.17, might be worth filling up this evening in case it jumps overnight.

    Jesus Gillie did you see the front page of the Post this morning a few people must have read your post above :)

    There is a picture of a tail back going into Sligo Fuels as far back as the eye can see taken after the budget yesterday.

    No didn't see it! Good to see ppl voting with their feet as it were! I'd say there was plenty of ciggy's bought yesterday too.

    Heading through Ballymote last nite on way to Gurteen and Unleaded was 121/122 and this morning its 129.9 - more than Diesel!

    It's been a long time since Petrol was more expensive than Diesel! Glad I have a Diesel now!


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,762 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Im thinking about changing shortly and now Im not sure what to look for - a diesel or petrol jeep.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,907 ✭✭✭bennyc


    in the process too i kinda had my mind made up for a Diesel before yesterday but that seals the deal. With the price of petrol and the low cost of import duty on Diesel its going to send a lot more people over the water or across the border for machines. If I were you Muffler I would be going Diesel and I would say there are a lot of bargains to be got at the moment especially if its a commercial you are after.

    i know this is an old Thread and i hope this doesnt get me an infraction.:p

    Just down at Sligo Fuels today and see they have started doing Coal.They look to be doing it in a big way,i seen an artci curtainsider being unloaded.I wonder will they be the cheapest for coal aswel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,758 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    I wonder will they be the cheapest for coal aswel.
    Don't know about that!

    They were charging €16.50 for a 40KG bag of Polish Doubles last Saturday week when I was down filling my car. I then went to their next door neighbours Connacht Gold and got the same 40KG bag of Polish Doubles for €12.

    €13.50 in that petfood place beside Daveys old Toyota garage and the same in Supervalu in Ballisodare!

    that is a huge difference.He is probably thinking that while people are filling up with their Diesel/Petrol they will buy coal while there at it and that he will have €4.50 more mark up than Connacht Gold,bad idea.I was in Enniskillen last week and their selling 12.5kg Bags of coal in Blacklion for €6.00 a bag.
