It is no secret that refilling your car is a heart breaking task right now. With constantly rising prices, trying to budget to spend a certain amount on fuel can be difficult.
Even at the best of times, getting those numbers to line up perfectly can be a challenge and you can often find yourself going over your price range. But one woman has discovered a 'game-changing' button that can get your car filled to the right amount.
As the cost of living crisis continues to cripple the nation and with fuel prices at an all time high, every money saving tip counts. If you find yourself over filling your car, this may solve your problem.
In a viral TikTok video, a woman has shared a little-known petrol pump trick that could save you money and time. All it takes is the simple push of a button.
Known only as Livs, the 23-year-old who posts under @livticks shared her shock after discovering a preset button when she was filling up her car, the Mirror reports. Filming the petrol pump, she explained: "How did I never know this existed?!
"If you click this button two times ten for £20. It will stop itself at exactly £20.
"Wow! That's so cool."
Her clip showed how the cost and fuel on the petrol pump screen was going up - until the sale reached £20 exactly and it stopped.
She also showed a close-up of the preset section on the bottom-right-hand side of the pump, which features five buttons of different price and litre options and an explanation for how to use them.
More than two million people have since watched the video, with over 164,000 liking it and thousands commenting on the "petrol life hack".
One person said: "Wait. You mean no more £20.01???"
Another replied to say that not all petrol stations have the button, but for the ones that do it's a "game-changer".
A third posted: "You can also set it to stop at a certain literage too. Tesco is the only ones I know with it tho."
"Always learning," proclaimed someone else.
A different user added: "I've never seen this."
Definitely something to keep an eye out for next time you go to fill up your car!
