Your local Calor gas depot. Is there a pump on site?

#1 Post by 2CR51 »

If so, the price per litre may be a lot cheaper than you pay at the pump of a retailers forecourt.

All of the retailers in my area sell at between 49.9 and 58.9ppl but at my local Calor Gas depot is is ony 46.9ppl :) and has been for several months now.

Down side are their opening hours.

9-5 Mon Fri and 9 - 12 on a Saturday and they are closed Sunday.

Afraid it's not always true, although it is worth keeping an eye out. The Calor Centre in Worcester is 52ppl. Same opening times.

It's true in my case, ie, the Calor Centre is 49.9ppl whereas other retailers are higher, but it varies quite a lot between Calor Centres as well, with the cheapest I've seen (about 200 miles from me) is 41.9ppl :evil:

Agreed.
It would seem Calor's policy is to be a little cheaper than the next cheapest (in the same area).
The same also appears to be true for Flogas (the cheapest I've seen is the Birmingham depot in Castle Vale, at 42p).
So, LPG does have something in common with petrol (the retailers operate a "what we can get away with" policy)!

Morrisons at Kings Lynn was 49.9 ppl, but again I've not been there for a while.
