I filled up at costco this week. Just over £10 cheaper than Tesco. So if i fill up 3 times over the year that saving covers my membership of £33

I didn’t realise we’d socialised diesel distribution
So? That’s how business works… Are the government supposed to impose fixed prices on them?
The guardian discovers what a business is. Reddit, a day after praising the Just Stop Oil protestors, decides that oil is good and should be cheaper.
There is something wrong with our version of capitalism in the fact that no forecourt owner has seen that and offered to charge less to increase their throughput and thus revenues.
Competition should handle this, but it doesn’t. What has gone wrong?

Isn’t that capitalism summed up.
Charge more for something than is necessary.
