Mile-long queues at family-run filling station selling petrol at £1.69 a litre

Drivers from "all over" have been flocking to a family-run filling station that is selling petrol for just £1.69 a litre. Bailey's Garage in Brecon Road in Abergavenny is selling some of the cheapest unleaded petrol for miles bringing in massive queues – up to a mile long – from the minute it's open right up until it closes.

The garage's general assistant Cerys Holland said that since the price of their BP petrol went down two weeks ago it's been "bonkers" and the staff "don't stop". She explained that Bailey's is currently offering petrol that is about 20p cheaper than prices at other local stations and even cheaper than ones further out.

"It's a local garage. You know people's faces and I've seen people that I've never seen before so you know they're coming from all over to get it. It must be worth it," said the 34-year-old, who's worked at the station for 12 years.
