Fuel can still cost under £1 if you go to the right place

A supermarket chain has implemented a plan which will allow for up to 40 litres of fuel to be exchanged for vouchers to be used in-store.

Fuel prices are continuously on the rise. Whatever the given reason for it, the effect on the consumer at the pump is disastrous. 

Already, people are changing how they drive and ride on the roads in order to use less fuel, and even using their vehicles less often. 

Furthermore, it must be said that a government in turmoil is not especially conducive to economic improvements. 

But, of course, the fuel price hikes over recent months are not exclusive to the UK. In fact, they are felt pretty much everywhere. In France, motorists can expect to pay over two euros per litre, although there is a way to get it cheaper - much cheaper, in fact.

Yes, in France it is possible to find fuel for 0.85 euros per litre, which is about £0.72. But, this is not a government deduction; although the French government makes a fuel deduction of 18 cents, that still leaves the price at over two euros per litre and at a cost to the French government of over three billion euros. 

This is where Casino comes in. No, not slot machines and roulette tables, not the 1995 Scorcese movie, and not the hill south of Rome which saw one of the more famous battles of the Second World War. No, we are talking about a supermarket chain.

Le Repaire des Motards reports that the Casino group is offering reimbursements on fuel refills when using the petrol stations at its participating supermarkets. 

In this case, Casino is giving fuel customers vouchers of up to 120 euros when people refill with up to 40 litres. 

Of course, the vouchers are redeemable only in Casino’s supermarkets - that is Casino and Geant Casino stores - and so the scenario is not a perfect one, but one that fits within societal reality.
