The current trend in fuel prices has been, unfortunately, rising with no end in sight. However, the AA thinks that it\u2019s about to; finally, go down as the Supermarkets set up for a price war. It\u2019s been going up for 11 straight weeks, for a litre of petrol you can expect to pay \u00a31.31 or \u00a31.35 for diesel.<\/p>\n
Now there is the possibility of a drop as the wholesale price of fuel has dropped by 3p. This means that it\u2019s cheaper for petrol stations to stock up. However, this rather decent cut hasn\u2019t come to the consumers yet.<\/p>\n
The AA sees one coming soon. Whenever wholesale prices go down the supermarkets pass on the lower costs. With an opening like this it can be expected that the different brands will start a war\u00a0of the prices. While they attempt to price their fuel competitively the drivers around the UK can enjoy the lower prices. Savings might come up to \u00a31.50 less per tank on average.<\/p>\n
This is a ray of sunshine as the news earlier in the month was that there was \u201cno end in sight to rising pump prices\u201d. Another reason for this price drop could be the pound strengthening. This might be changing the other way, as we stay in this period of Brexit uncertainty. This isn\u2019t stopping the idea of removing the freeze on fuel duty however in the next budget.<\/p>\n
If you want to get on this trend now however the AA say to \u201ckeep an eye out for competitive oil company sites\u201d as they may be trying to get in their early and undercut the more expensive Supermarket sites.
