Supermarket fuel prices to fall

 
Staff|Agency13 January 2014

The price of supermarket fuel is to fall, providing motorists with some good mid-winter news.

Asda and Tesco are both reducing their petrol and diesel prices by up to 2p a litre from tomorrow.

Asda, the first to announce a cut, said that from tomorrow motorists would pay no more than 126.7p a litre for petrol and 133.7p a litre for diesel. It added that its diesel would now fall to its lowest price since July 2012.

AA president Edmund King said: "Fuel price reductions at the pumps will bring a sigh of relief to many drivers who are struggling to make ends meet after bigger than normal financial outgoings during the festive period.

"We hope that other supermarkets and fuel retailers follow the lead of Asda and Tesco to cut their prices at the pumps otherwise we just end up with a fuel-price lottery based on proximity to certain supermarkets."
