thewelsho Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Was meeting up at the main Shell station just of the A80 to drop soemthing off. I didn't realise that it was closed for repairs and by the time I got there, my fuel light was on. So, I phoned a friend and got a post code for a nearby station in Cumbernauld and made my way there with the aid of Sat Nav. Arrived to fill up my thirsty car to see that they were charging £1.14 per litre!!!!!! Needless to say it was as splash and dash! Rip-off rats! Filled up at London Road. Link to comment
Richie Cross Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Filled up recently and I though 108.9p was bad enough!! Link to comment

billyboy Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Some type of regulation should be brought out to stop garages round the corner from each other charging different prices. Link to comment

~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Oil price is rising unfortunately but that does not stop certain franchises doing what they want You should be more worried about this and the affect on your donuts ! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8193390.stm Link to comment

st3ph3n Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 You get on okay at London road John? I've had 2 crap tanks out of there last year and haven't been back. I think the owner lives just round from me. Link to comment

I think the owner lives just round from me. Yeah, I remember you saying that before. It's been fine for me but I think I might start going to Govanhill again. Trouble with Govanhill is that the forecourt is slanty, so I can't fill the tank to the max. So when I see that I'm getting 15 miles less to the tank, I start to get in a panic! LOL! Link to comment
