    Applegreen appear to be the ones who give the motorist the best deal. The are currently at 128.8 and 122.8 respectively for petrol and diesel in Kilkenny.

    Fuel prices in my local Circle k have been 129.7 Diesel and 134.7 Petrol for the last 2 weeks.

    What area is this can I ask?? I have a commercial, and always buy my diesel at a Circle K in Newbridge...was €1.35/l last night, though with Applegreen directly across the road selling for 5c/L less, I think Circle K will also have to drop.

    Nothing like competition"
    I wonder if LESS IS MORE.
    I recently noted a big Applegreen sign on a motorway advertising diesel diesel for 119.89. BUT most of the 8 pumps dispensed it at 125.89. The higher price was advertised on a small sow hangingboard and parallel to the motorway. It was basically out of sight. A classic case of false advertising

    The lowest prices I have seen recently were at the Black Quarry service station in Kilkenny where Applegreen were charging 130.7 for unleaded and 123.7 for diesel. Meanwhile, the two major oils have continued to fall on world markets.

    Some crazy & wild fluctuations on the price of a litre of diesel these days. Saw €1.35 ( I think ) almost across from IKEA in Ballymun last week, then yesterday saw €1.24 in Newbridge, yet bought for €1,12 ( on production of my Topaz card ) in Kill...ALL Circle K........Wonder why a difference of 25 cents per litre...

    Great news. Oil dropped to its lowest price since the 1st Gulf War today as Russia pulled out of any agreement with OPEC and said they will increase there production of oil. Saudi Arabia is also to increase its oil production. It was below 30 dollars a barrel. Its around 30 dollars 70 cent now and hopefully with not go above 40 dollars ever again. Great news for all of us that use oil be it in our cars or to heat our homes.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Good luck if you think that drop will transfer to the pumps.

    Well all the talk is that the price of oil will not go back to the level at was at before the end of this year so the price at the pumps should drop a bit just might take a week or two. I suppose it depends on when they buy there oil for there pumps and the same with the company they are buying it from but it should drop eventually.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Not doubting You, but what proof have You got on this 'lockdown'?

    Yes , you are on the button if we continue to ‘ misbehave’. The Gov is trying to manage the rate of infection and if it finds that it is seriously escalating because some individuals are ignoring some of the practices it is asking us to adhere, then we can expect a lockdown or something close to it.
    You are probably wrong about Monday but expect it at some later date if we ignore some basic guidelines
