My mate in Florida gave me a laugh last night, His local small filling station has took to putting up hand written signs with the almost daily increase in petrol prices.
The set of manual flapper board type cards that they change by hand only go up to the number 4 for the main number for the dollar price, They've never ever had to have a higher number before lol

Default boycott BP-ESSO-SHELL

BP by me went up another 10p yesterday from £1.79 to £1.89 i wonder how much they will add today, this as got to be the garage managers surely not the company it's self?

lets not forget that the diesel or petrol in the holding tanks in the garage will have been bought before all this started so over 20 days it's gone from £1.47 to the above averaging 12p-14p per week

Surely no one is profiteering over all of this?


That's just not cricket.

Economists are predicting events similar to the 1973 oil crises. Hold on to you're savings if you can

On the way to work it was 165.9p for diesel and on the way back a few hours later it’s now 179.9p a litre. The garage at the other end of the village is 185.9p but it’ll go up as well no doubt. It’s getting ridiculous now.
