Unleaded is still £1.33.9. Couldn't tell you any other prices though as I only bought unleaded this morning!

The very nature of the product means you are going to travel. Fill up outside Lewes. Eastbourne is always cheaper; or try Patcham ( by the Black Lion) or next to Hove station.

And 3-4p per litre dearer than Tesco in Eastbourne, consistently over several years.
Why? Because they can get away with it in Lewes. No competition in Lewes - ESSO generally charges exactly the same. What a strange coincidence.
If you buy petrol from Tesco in Lewes, you are confirming their view that you are a mug, who can safely be fleeced.
And do you think it is only petrol?
Every little helps.

Morrisons Eastbourne unleaded 129.9
Typical of supermarkets there
or in Uckfield
or at the black rabbit roundabout, Patcham (A27/A23)
BUT
Lewes (Tesco or ESSO) 133.9
Even the little Busy Bee in Ringmer and the rip-off place opposite the Newmarket
can match that
