    To find the cheapest - it is a case of ringing them all and asking for prices.

    I always use O'Reilly's, no idea if they are cheapest or not.

    based on current refinery prices + carbon tax + about 10 distributor margin / litre + 13.5% vat, you should get 1000 litres for about €660, but this is set to rise quite soon to about €690 as oil prices have jumped.

    Refinery cost per litre = 46c
    Carbon tax per litre = 3.8c
    Distribution costs = 10c (approx.)
    Vat = 8.1c
    Total = 67.9c / litre

    For the last 2 years I have rang around and found Cill Dara Oil to be the cheapest and they do a run to carlow twice a week for deliveries.

    I used boilerjuice.ie and got 250 litres for €189, pretty happy with that! It's coming from Toughers oil. That's including delivery.
