    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    That's sickening.

    I wonder how much the 91 is ?

    (87 is like 90ron)
    (89 is like 94ron)

    I think they have taken $1 off the per gallon price.


    In Texas at the moment 87 is about $2.25 /Gallon


    Still super cheap.

    Is there any update on this ? Or a Copycat ?

    Price drops are not reflected at the pumps.

    We need it now more than ever.

    In the absence of an update on a pumps replacement (which I fully understand - smarter people than I are required to make this become a reality), can anyone share any decent prices for petrol/diesel which they may have spotted in recent days in the Dublin area?

    (Bonus points if it's a CicleK/Topaz, as I can use my fuel card &#55357;&#56842;)

    A decrease in crude oil prices today will take weeks to see at the pumps, if you even see it at all.

    The real winners are the suppliers. They can buy oil cheap and keep forecourt prices high.

    The real winners are the government who take most of the money spent on fuel!

    Actually Govt. lose out when prices fall, as the VAT element of the price falls with it. Excise stays the same.

    Most of the price we pay is tax so the fall won't be big here unlike the USA where there is little taxes so they have massive swings when crude changes

    Still, a drop of 10c a litre to the forecourt is a drop of 12.3c to the customer. Not to be sneezed at, (as well as preventing corona virus).

    I was at Mount Brown earlier today and diesel price still at 1.299 per litre. Didn't notice price of petrol.
    The other garages I passed in south Dublin today all had diesel around 1.33-1.36

    Just a small sneak peak and update.

    Apologies if not allowed, mods can clarify if any rules are broke or this needs to be moved to a different forum, however it is technically motor related :pac:

    Website is coming along nicely, still a couple features to add to it but hopefully it will be operational in the next week or so.

    Got an email from CircleK inviting me to download their App. Has a map of stations, but no prices. I sent them feedback on this, here's the reply;

    "Hi ,

    Thank you for contacting us and providing feedback.

    Unfortunately under competition law, we can only display fuel prices at the store on our price display.

    Be worth asking them the specific part of the Competition Acts prevents this. If it is true it might explain the demise of pumps.ie

    Applegreen to drop fuel prices by up to 10 cent per litre

    https://www.irishtimes.com/business/energy-and-resources/applegreen-to-drop-fuel-prices-by-up-to-10-cent-per-litre-1.4201990

    Paid 140 for petrol last night and was frankly surprised at the lack of fall. Normally the cheapest place in my area of Dublin.

    Amazing how they can sell it there so cheap, nearest port would be Belfast I think for them to get the fuel from.

    You're right, I'd forgotten about that Opec/Fracking/Brexit hiccup, culminating in Trump. World gone to hell in a handcart since. Prices over the years. 2007-9 were volatile, but averaged at the general level of todays low price. This current hiccup probably the same, probably will last as briefly as 2016 and may end the year similarly, with a Brexit/ Trump finale.

    I paid 1.38 a few days ago in Listowel. All this reminded me of the peak oil stories on RTE about 20 years ago. I think David McWilliams was the guy there.
