Martin Lewis' 10-second petrol tip that could save you £220

Martin Lewis has shared a tip for drivers that could save you hundreds of pounds each year. As fuel prices across the country continue to soar, household budgets are under even greater strain.

In some areas, petrol and diesel prices are already more than £2 a litre. So finding the cheapest available fuel is a top priority for drivers. Martin Lewis has highlighted a way to immediately cut the amount you spend on the forecourt, and he says it only takes a few seconds, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Tweeting to his followers, the money expert said: "Find the nearest cheapest petrol station near you.... Petrolprices.com." The website allows people to enter their postcode and compare petrol and diesel prices, including specific types of fuel such as premium. More than 2.1 million UK drivers already use the site, which says it can lead to savings of over £220 a year. Martin's tip proved so popular that the website crashed following his tweet.
