Petrol prices near me: The cheapest fuel at Morrisons, Tesco, Asda and local stations as AA give some hope to motorists

The AA has raised hope that the record fuel prices, being hit across the UK daily in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, will soon start to ease.

The motoring group reported that average pump costs for a litre of unleaded on Thursday rose from 159.57p the previous day to 161.06p.

Diesel marched upwards too from 167.37p to 170.09p.

But it said that there was evidence that pump costs were reaching their peak and may fall back.

The hikes have come as the ongoing invasion of Ukraine from Russian forces is continuing to have an impact on the global cost of oil and gas. Russia is the second largest producer of crude oil in the world and it provides a third of Europe’s total oil supplies.

What should be done to keep the cost of petrol and diesel down? Have your say in the comments section.

This means it's worth looking around for the best prices when looking to fill up your car – supermarket forecourts usually offer the cheapest fuel prices. This is because of the market power supermarkets hold – the big names like Asda, Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Morrisons are all in competition with one another so they keep fuel prices as low as possible hoping that when motorists come to fill their tank they might do their weekly grocery shopping too.

But how have the price increases affected the cost of petrol where you live? We checked the latest prices of unleaded as recorded on petrol station comparison website PetrolPrices.com.

It is worth noting that the website relies on users submitting prices therefore the price recorded on the site for each station may slightly differ from the actual price depending on how recent the last submission for that station was.

Here are the cheapest and most expensive places to fill up with unleaded within five miles of your local area.
