Supermarkets are being slammed for keeping their petrol prices at an all-time high. It comes after petrol prices reached an unexpected record overage high over the weekend.
Motoring company, the RAC said the average price of petrol crept still higher on Sunday to a new record of 191.53p a litre while diesel remains on the brink of £2 at 199.03p, just a fraction of its all-time high (199.09p – 25 June 2022).
It means that the cost of filling the average family vehicle has topped £105, which is piling on the already tight purse strings of many families amid the wider cost of living crisis.
