Price of petrol in Kilkenny

EKRIUQ

6th November 2004

I think were being ripped off in Kilkenny for the price of petrol. One petrol station in Kilkenny on the Roundabout is charging €105.9 cent for a litre of petrol where as you can get a litre of petrol for 96 cent in waterford. The cheapest petrol in kilkenny that I can see is €102.9 cent on the collage road.

Anybody else want to throw in there tuppence worth.

In fairness, its buyer beware
If people are stupid enough to go to the station on the main roundabout then there muppets

Its the same as bitching about having to pay €1.50 for a can of coke but you can get it elsewhere for €80, basically shop around...
Is'ent there a cheap petrol in the hebron intustrial estate?

True, but W/ford has a Tesco petrol station that sell at 95.9 cent so every other garage had to price match them.

I think the Esso in Irishtown is 101c at the moment

all seem bit over priced to me compared to some other towns near by i think were been robbed blind,
take new ross for example its only 35 mins down the road, petrol there in tesco's is 111.9 and spend 50 euro on shopping in the store and get 5 cents a litre off, the statoil there is 111.9 and buy any car wash and get 5 cents a litre off, maybe its just a tesco's we need to drive down the prices hope this might help somebody

Nice to see the price from 4 years ago, Tesco makes a difference because people will travel and would have an effect on prices here.

I don't think people are going to travel big distances to get petrol though.

The worst is the Campus garage ont he way to Ballyragget - totally extortionate!

Cheapest place is up in Hebron Industrial estate, cant remember the name.

Prices in KK at the moment are pretty good. Was keeping an eye on the prices coming down from Dublin at the weekend. The prices in the city seemed to be on par with or cheaper than most in Dublin, Athy and the places in between.

Think I paid 118.8 in Statoil on the Comer Road, whereas one Esso I passed in Dublin was charging 123.9

Was in Clonmel last week and petrol was available for 113.9. Lads in work from Waterford are telling me that Tesco have it for 109.9!

ergonomics

I find the place in Hebron to be about standard. Was 117.9 last time I went there. It's a long hike but I pass it regularly - Texaco in Urlingford is 115.9 and Apple is, wait for it, 113.9. Brilliant for a student!

just-wonderin

just home from work, and filled up in tesco's in new ross 111.9 both petrol and diesel

Firetrap

What sort of wheels are you driving that can take both petrol and diesel?

Urlingford is the best place in KK to buy fuel-competition there is great.
