People across the country are struggling to find ways to keep their fuel costs down as the price of diesel and petrol soar towards £2 a litre - and one woman has found a handy hack. On Monday, roads across the country were brought to a standstill as drivers slowed right down on motorways and A routes to protest spiralling fuel costs.
And well over 2million people have now watched a video shared by Liv, 23, who has found a way to help keep your spending in petrol stations under control. Liv shared her find on tiktok
Filming the petrol pump, she explained: "How did I never know this existed?! If you click this button two times ten for £20. It will stop itself at exactly £20.
"Wow! That's so cool."
Her clip showed how the cost and fuel on the petrol pump screen was going up - until the sale reached £20 exactly and it stopped, reports The Mirror. She also showed a close-up of the preset section on the bottom-right-hand side of the pump, which features five buttons of different price and litre options and an explanation for how to use them.
More than two million people have since watched the video, with over 164,000 liking it and thousands commenting on the "petrol life hack". Kelsey said: "Wait. You mean no more £20.01???"
Clueless Mom replied to say that not all petrol stations have the button, but for the ones that do it's a "game-changer". A third posted: "You can also set it to stop at a certain literage too. Tesco is the only ones I know with it tho."
"Always learning," proclaimed someone else. A different user added: "I've never seen this."
Others pointed out the amount won't reduce the cost of the fuel - Gem wrote: "Where did £20 get you tho…. To the next street???"
