Re: We need you help to bring fuel down

Plus I believe ya'lls pay is higher on average than the US. I make a meager $6 an hour working 22-25 hours a week so $4.19 a gallon for Premium sucks (my average weekly paycheck is $120).

And looking at that map again, it says my county pays higher overall but my town supposedly has lower prices....... bullshit. It's always more expensive here than most than other towns. But within the town, prices vary. I passed a Kroger station today that was only $4.09 for premium but my favorite station on the other side of town is $4.19 (Texaco). Like hell I'm puttin Kroger gas in though. I'm never puttin anything other than Texaco or Shell in it ever again after my little problem with Exxon. That shit gas made my car run like hell. Never again. Either Shell V-Power or Texaco Premium + Techron.

Re: We need you help to bring fuel down

i dont have a shell in NY believe it or not, I think theres one in NJ but those shell stations you have to hunt down. They go out of business too fast with all the other gas stations selling gas cheaper, no one here knows the difference of good gas and bad gas

Re: We need you help to bring fuel down

Wouldnt know much about our National Health Service....i pay to go private (Thank ****! )

Nah its a great system but is over subscribed in my opinion!

The funny thing is, there isnt a shortage of fuel at all, its just speculators driving the prices up so they can make a few pennies, we now have the technology to turn the oil shale in canada and south america into oil and can be done for around $60 per barrell and the amount there is equal to the amount weve used since industrilisation.... or so ive been told....lol always a chance ive been fed bullshit!


Plus theyve found out the north sea oil and gas reserves are supposed to be 25 times bigger than they thought arnt they?

Our fuel suppliers at work have summed it up on the phone to us 'Someone somewhere is getting very rich and its not us!"


Tbph, the many petitions on the web probs wont do anything, but then again, the lorry blockades wont do anything probably but were on the verge of sending our wagons down to london aswell, just to do something so ill sign it when i get 2 secs



Oh and the americans have actually taken it pretty hard in comparison, as in there % increase compared to the original is higher than ours,

either way, were all being ****ed!


My opinion and 2 pence anyway

Re: We need you help to bring fuel down

yea i know gas companies are screwing with us, i saw a mobil yesterday selling their gas for $3.70 as a one day sale so they obviously have the power to lower whenever they want. Plus i heard the price per barrel decreased as well the other day so why arent prices going down.
