Fuel prices across the Black Country and Staffordshire as supermarkets close gap and become cheapest
Fuel prices are on the rise again across the Black Country and Staffordshire, with some stations increasing their petrol and diesel prices over 6p in the last few days.
In Wolverhampton, Sainsbury's petrol station at their St Marks store on Raglan Street, is now the cheapest in the city for both petrol and diesel.
This comes as Total Energies on Dudley Road, Wolverhampton, maintained its title as the cheapest service station across the Black Country and Staffordshire for several months, but now the supermarkets have closed the gap on the independent petrol stations.
The Total Energies station on Dudley Road saw queues of vehicles lining up to fill up with the cheapest fuel, and even extended their hours to a 24-hour service from Monday to Saturday.
Average prices have risen for the first time since July, with the average litre of petrol in the UK costing 162.8p, and average litre of diesel costing 181.9p.
