A leading supermarket has quietly dropped both petrol and diesel prices. Asda is now charging an average of 153.5p for petrol and 176.7p for diesel, which is around 2p less than its rivals.
The grocer dropped petrol rates by 4.5p on average, while diesel prices have slashed by around 5.5p. Prices started to drop two days ago, according to the RAC's fuel watch.
This comes after the motoring group urged Big Four retailers to drop their fuel rates by at least 5p, as it was not reflecting wholesale savings. They are now urging competitors Sainsbury's, Morrisons and Tesco to catch up.
