'Selling cheap fuel helps people keep costs down', says garage owner
Mr Roberts said drivers queue until the garage closes at night and "it's not long" before the queues start again after opening at 06:00 BST
Dave Roberts was selling a litre of petrol for 166.9p and diesel at 185.9p at DA Roberts near Whitchurch in Shropshire on Wednesday. However, the surge in prices had led to people driving off without paying and he had almost £1,000 of fuel stolen over the last month."We obviously made a good deal with the oil company when we started our contract," he said.
"What enables us to keep that up mostly is, we sell a lot of fuel and we keep up-to-date with the daily price, so if the future price alters tomorrow, we can alter it that day after or whatever. That's what enables it to be done."He said drivers queue until the garage closes at night and "it's not long" before the queues start again after opening at 06:00 BST.
