Tesco's beat that for me yesterday.

I got a refund on a petrol bill yesterday, and it wasn't until i was home realized it was for £44.OO too much.

So a 14 mile round trip, took me back to get it sorted, so the pump attendant didn't get into trouble.

She looked quite amazed when i said why i was there, but everyone would have done the same, wouldn't they?

She was very grateful, so it was worth doing.

Diesel locally priced at £1.439 per litre. Morrisons 12 miles away £1.389 per litre. I despair!

Well done OH - yes I would like to think that most people would do the same but I'm not sure.

Nice to know there are still honest people about.

I'm thinking of asking my son's friend how he converted his car to using used chip shop oil. I know you could always smell fish and chips when he drove past.
