Why Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's petrol prices vary at different forecourts

Fuel prices across the country have continued to steadily fall over the past month.

Data from the RAC's 'Fuel Watch' states the average price for a litre of petrol at the end of March was 146.5p, a drop of just over 1p in the month - this signifies the lowest prices since January 2022. Compare this to early November 2022, when petrol prices reached a high of 166p per litre. It means motorists are now saving an average of 20p per litre, or, £11 on the typical 55-litre family car.

Despite this, people looking for the cheapest fuel prices may have noticed that prices vary depending on where you fill up. A quick search on petrolprices.com reveals that different areas have different prices, even when they're both being supplied by the same supermarket.
