There's a small family run garage just off the main road near to me they fill your car up for you, the first time I went there I didn't realise and did my own, they gave me a bar of chocolate as they said they hadn't come out quickly enough.

I'd hate it! It's good if you're old or infirm but personally I'd find it a huge step backwards

Our local shell garage couldn't manage that, they can barely handle 2 customers who wish to pay lol

I rather liked it - saves getting wet and stinking of petrol if you dribble some out of the nozzle

That's what we do at Tescos G - I like it Petrol is 140.9 here and diesel 143.9 but that's at a Shell garage I pass, it may be a penny or two cheaper at Tescos/Morrisons. OH filled the car up yesterday, from just under 1/4 tank and it cost him just over £80

OH filled the car up yesterday, from just under 1/4 tank and it cost him just over £80 OUCH! I was complaining about 1/4 that to fill up my small car. I've noticed recently, that whenever our local station makes a huge jump (which they have been recently), a couple of days later the drop the price a penny or two, so you can think, "Oh, it went down, how nice!" Even though it is still above what it had been.

I filled up today, Sainsburys is £1.33.9 for unleaded. Grief, they couldn't even set the pump back to zero so it would start again...they'd be no hope of anyone coming out. They just bellow over a megaphone type system if they want anything. 'PERSON AT PUMP 8 TURN YOUR PHONE OFF!'...'PERSON AT PUMP 12 SHUT YOUR BOOT!'. There are a LOT of rules!

143.9 for diesel at the Texaco (I think it is) garage (which used to be Shell and kept the prices!) the same distance away as the other Shell petrol station but in the opposite direction.
