    I just rang them and got a quote of €280 for 500lts of Kero - she did say to ring again in the afternoon as they expect the price to drop a bit. Girls name was karen and was very nice.

    Fuel prices really have come back in recent weeks. Out of curiosity, was that 5c price rise per 500l, 1000l or just per litre in general do you know?

    that was a 5c per litre increase..

    think the price per barrel of oil has been on the up in recent
    weeks so they won't be slow to make the upward adjustment.

    Sligo Fuels quoted €450 for 1,000 litres of heating oil today but said the price is about to rise (unspecified). Their diesel is still the cheapest in town.

    I would normally be getting a fill at this time of year but given the fact that temperatures were well up for a good part of the year coupled with getting the walls and attic insulated it will probably be another couple of months before I need to order.

    Anyhow it would be interesting and a good help to others to see a few prices posted here again.

    The Budget will see a a "carbon tax" which is bound to increase the price of oil, coal etc. I am going to fill up before then.

    Carbon tax is a good point, i think the budget is usually the first week in December - so food for thought there. Thanks for the price update.... Any more experiences?

    Where are you based?

    If you are really stuck a few of the shops stock the 25 litre emergency jars of heating oil but they are very expensive.
